Description

Pippa Shirley joins Richard Harwood and Clarissa Levi to discuss the UK’s export controls for cultural objects. How does the Reviewing Committee for the Export of Works of Art operate? Who was Viscount Waverley, and are the 1952 Waverley Criteria still fit for purpose?  We talk about how export stops work, how to ensure the process is fair, and why outstanding ugliness is aesthetically important too.
