"Sir Anthony Caro used to say, 'You can't do it all Beth.' And I thought: 'I can'" Meet the British sculptor who created the 'Dhow Sail' - the large marble sculpture in front of the Dubai Opera House. Liz Taylor delves into the events that make an international artist like Beth Cullen-Kerridge, all while being the other driving force behind the success of her husband, chef Tom. From working for sculptor Sir Anthony Caro to the creation of her "Super Suits" bronzes, via the success of the Kerridges' restaurants and hotels, Liz finds out the hard work and ambition that makes Beth Cullen-Kerridge truly unique. Liz Taylor’s 30-year career in event planning has built an impressive portfolio of events, including celebrity weddings, charity fundraisers like Children in Need with Gary Barlow and huge gala dinners such as Winter White Gala at Kensington Palace for HRH Duke of Cambridge, as well as the Manchester United Champions League winning after party in Moscow and Coronation Street’s 40th anniversary celebrations.

Hosted by David Green of The Cultural Alliance Of Fairfield County. Meet Robert Wolterstorff, appointed The Susan E. Lynch Executive Director and Chief Executive Officer of Greenwich’s Bruce Museum in June 2019, just as this venerable art and science museum begins a $60 million complete overhaul that will more than double its floorspace adding education and community spaces and significantly expanding its space for permanent and temporary installations of art, science, and natural history exhibitions. Wolterstorff is an art and architectural historian (MA from Williams, PhD from Princeton) with a passion for both Victorian design and contemporary art. He has a history of successful turnarounds of institutions – most notably the Victoria Mansion in Portland, Maine, (1998-2010) and Bennington Museum, Vermont (2012-2019), where he radically increased attendance through groundbreaking exhibitions (Milton Avery’s Vermont, Grandma Moses: American Modern) and created the Bennington Modernism Gallery to highlight the achievements of the circle of now-famous abstract painters and sculptors associated with Bennington in the 1960s: Helen Frankenthaler, Kenneth Noland, Jules Olitski, Larry Poons, David Smith, Tony Smith, and Sir Anthony Caro. Hear about his career trajectory and what he will bring to “The New Bruce”

This week Neil MacGregor is exploring the sophisticated ways in which people connected to gods and ancestors in the Middle Ages. He is looking at religious images from India, France, Mexico and Turkey. Today - in the last programme of the second series - he is with one of the most instantly recognisable sculptures in the world: one of the giant stone heads that were made on Easter Island in the South Eastern Pacific Ocean. These deeply mysterious objects lead Neil to consider why they were made and why many were ultimately thrown down. What was the Easter Islanders understanding of their gods and their ancestors? Steve Hooper, an expert on the arts of the Pacific, and the internationally renowned sculptor Sir Anthony Caro both respond to this monumental work of devotion. Producer: Anthony Denselow.
Sue Lawley's castaway this week is Sir Anthony Caro. Universally regarded as the 'grand old man of British sculpture', in the 1950s he had learnt from his mentor Henry Moore that artistic rules were there to be broken. So he yanked sculpture off it's pedestal and set it on the floor. And he rejected the traditional materials of bronze, marble and wood for girders, nuts and bolts. In fact as he confesses to Sue Lawley, nothing is safe from his magpie eye: parts of ships, cars, even kitchen equipment have all been incorporated into his work.
