Description
Ben Luke talks to Julian Opie about his life and work by exploring the artists that have inspired him, his literary and musical influences and the cultural experiences that have most affected him. He talks about the early influence of Egon Schiele, his passion for Japanese prints by Utamaro and Hiroshige, his fascination with reading about ancient cultures and early humans, and his connection with composer Max Richter and the band Blur, among much else. And he answers the ultimate questions: if you could live with just one work of art, what would it be? And what is art for? This episode is sponsored by Bloomberg Connects.
