A Tall Order! Rochdale Art Gallery in the 1980s is the name of the show currently on at Touchstones Rochdale, which reflects on the gallery鈥檚 radical history supporting those who were, at the time, overlooked by the mainstream of the art world, some of whom have gone on to prestigious careers. Co-curators Derek Horton and Alice Correia join Front Row to discuss the show.

We begin our interviews with the writers shortlisted for the Baillie Gifford Prize鈥檚 Winner of Winners Award. The award picks an overall favourite from across the prize鈥檚 25 year history. James Shapiro will be discussing 1599: A Year in the Life of William Shakespeare, his portrait of the most impactful year of Shakespeare鈥檚 life during which he wrote Henry V, Julius Caesar, As You Like It and, most remarkably, Hamlet.

And we talk to arts minister Lord Parkinson on the new 拢60 million Cultural Investment Fund.
