Four years after Tate Britain closed its restaurant because Rex Whistler\\u2019s murals on its walls contained racist imagery, it has unveiled the work it commissioned in response to Whistler\\u2019s painting by the artist Keith Piper. We talk to Piper about the work. The annual Art Basel & UBS Art Market Report was published on Wednesday and, as ever, reviews the status of the international art market. We speak to its author, the cultural economist and founder of the company Arts Economics, Clare McAndrew. And this episode\\u2019s Work of the Week is With Verticals, one of Anni Albers\\u2019s pictorial weavings, made in 1946. It is a key piece in the exhibition Woven Histories: Textiles and Modern Abstraction, which arrived this week at the National Gallery of Art in Washington. We discuss the weaving with the show\\u2019s curator, Lynne Cooke.


Keith Piper: Viva Voce, Tate Britain, until at least 2025.
