BBC Radio 4 – Start the Week, Architecture and power

Published:


Tom Sutcliffe explores public art and architecture with Doug Aitken, Owen Hatherley, Jacqueline Yallop and Graham Morrison.

On Start the Week Tom Sutcliffe looks at the landscapes of communism with the writer Owen Hatherley whose new book reflects how power transformed the cities of the twentieth century. Jacqueline Yallop looks back at one of the most enduring experiments of Victorian philanthropy – the utopian ‘model’ village. The architect Graham Morrison is involved in a model village of his own, the regeneration and development of the 67 acre site at Kings Cross, and the artist Doug Aitken, famous for his large scale outdoor film installations which he’s called ‘liquid architecture’, is creating a 30-day happening, Station-to-Station.
Producer: Katy Hickman.
