Arena: The Museum of Drawers

Mon, Jan 8, 1979

Arena takes you on a guided tour of the smallest museum in the world - its 'curator', Swiss artist Herbert Distel, has transformed a small chest-of-drawers into a miniature museum. Originally used to store cotton reels, the Museum of Drawers now houses a collection to rival any major gallery - 500 original works contributed by many of the world's leading artists. Now and Then - Anthony Green Recently awarded the accolade of a one-man show at the Royal Academy. Anthony Green is one of the most original and approachable of all figurative painters working in Britain today. He paints his family - his wife, his two daughters, his mother, his stepfather, his French uncle and his aunts. In tonight's film Anthony Green looks back on the growth of his family and his painting since his first encounter with the BBC's cameras nearly ten years ago.
