Basma alSharif, the artist behind our current exhibition, on the slippery meaning of 'philistine', the gallery as a site for political material, and questioning the role of the nation state.

Jay and Calvin from Pity Party Film Club on taking control of the cinema, the joy of making other people laugh and films of female friendship.

About this podcast

Across this series, Gareth K Vile (Theatre Editor of The List Magazine, who also blogs wild critical theory here) chats to some of the amazing people who make, produce and contribute to our programme: from artists, curators and programmers, to community organisers and social clubs. We'll take a deep dive into exhibitions, gigs, performances and events - exploring the ideas and ethos that underpin our approach to programming and how you can get involved.
