In this episode, we discuss art’s broader social value, and interrogate private ownership. Here are some of the questions we think about in this episode:
- Do we have any right to privately own and keep art which has value on a social level?
- Is the value of art somehow ‘uneven’ – varying according to context?
- How does the value of art change if it’s truly democratised?
- What kind of art should be made public?
Your hosts are the philosopher Dr Sean Power and art theory graduate and curator Leila Johnston.
