What’s your favourite artwork and why? Starting with her own picks, art critic and author Megan Dunn contemplates the point of art, how we use it, and why we enjoy it.
At the upcoming Auckland Writers Festival event Speaker’s Corner: Art for Art's Sake Dunn will be arguing that art doesn’t always need to ‘play nice’ and uphold civic values. She says art should be audacious, challenging, and valued entirely for its own sake.
Dunn will talk us through some of her own favourite works, and we invite listeners to share why they love theirs. Send your thoughts through to saturday@rnz.co.nz or text 2101.
