Episode 1. New with Old - Islamic Art at The British Museum - Venetia Porter and Juan de Lara

Venetia Porter walks us through her experience curating the Albukhary Foundation Islamic galleries of the British Museum, how the collection grew bigger with contemporary art, how institutions are reacting to the coronavirus threat and what is making the young further engage with heritage and culture.

This podcast is part of Asia House Arts in Isolation Series and Converging Paths, an initiative organised in partnership with the Barakat Trust that promotes the arts and cultures of the Islamic World.
