Cooper & Cary Have Words
#123 Why Art Matters (With Alastair Gordon)
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Cooper and Cary have words with fine artist Alastair Gordon about why art matters, and why that would need explaining to us. We also ask: what should Christians make of the artist Tracy Emin? Or religious icons? And what does this have to do with Ferris Bueller?
