Free Thinking - Edmund de Waal, Orhan Pamuk
Ceramicist Edmund de Waal and author Orhan Pamuk discuss porcelain, craft skills and the changing nature of cities with Philip Dodd.
Orhan Pamuk, novelist and Nobel Prize winner is in conversation with Edmund de Waal - the potter and best-selling author of the Hare with Amber Eyes - who has been on a quest to explore the history of porcelain. Philip Dodd chairs a conversation ranging across the colours white and red, appreciating and conserving craft skills, the way historic objects are displayed in museums, and the changing identity of cities such as Desden, Jingdezhen and Istanbul.
