Artist Andy Goldsworthy on his retrospective exhibition, which spans a five decade career. Best known for his work in the landscape, this exhibition sees the artist create dramatic large scale works for the Royal Scottish Academy in Edinburgh - including an avenue of oak branches, a room of reeds suspended from the ceiling, and a room full of stones gathered from graveyards in Galloway, as well as films and photography of his ephemeral works made with ice and snow.
New on the auction of a masterpiece of modernist architecture in the Scottish Borders. A coalition of heritage organisations has formed to save and restore the dilapidated Bernat Klein Studio, where the celebrated textile designer and his wife Margaret produced work for international design houses. But were they successful at the sale earlier today?
We hear from two novelists whose books centre on motherhood and adoption: Yrsa Dailey Ward and Claire Adam.
And we pay tribute to Sylvia Young, whose Theatre School in central London helped to launch the careers of generations of performers - including Billie Piper, Amy Winehouse, Dua Lipa and Nicholas Hoult, and whose death was announced today.
