77 Wonders

Produced and presented by Hugo Cook

Sundays 16:00 - 17:00

For many of us, art and culture are tranquil outlets from a chaotic world. Join us to have that illusion torn apart.

From the bulldozed ruins of ancient temples to the glamorous salesrooms of high-end auction houses, the artefacts of humanity’s past still attract their fair share of controversy. Listen in each week to hear lawyers, art historians, and archaeologists debate some of the key cases of heritage controversy, from the Elgin Marbles to the statue of Cecil Rhodes, and discuss what the future of our past might look like. This is the wild and wonderful world of art and law.

Have something to discuss and want to come on the show? Great! Email hugo.cook@queens.ox.ac.uk with a brief pitch.
