What is art for? Part one
Alistair Hudson, Director of Middlesbrough Institute of Modern Art
As part of our 'Beyond the Gallery' programme we filmed a series of interviews with the Director of mima and Turner Prize judge Alistair Hudson
In part one, Alistair talks about the use value of art and poses the questions: What is the function of art in the 21st century and what role should it play in people's lives?
