Who decides what鈥檚 worth saving and what is culturally significant to protect in wartimes and war zones? The panel, hosted by Anne McElvoy, are:

Sir Peter Bazalgette - Chairman of ITV and former Chairman of Arts Council England
Carrie Reichardt - International artist and grassroots activist
Zahed Tajeddin - Syrian-born artist and archaeologist
Rebecca Newell - IWM鈥檚 Head of Art

Recorded with an audience at the Imperial War Museum, London on Wednesday November 6th.
What Remains, an exhibition with over 50 photographs, oral histories, objects and artworks, created in partnership with Historic England, explores why cultural heritage is attacked during war and the ways we save, protect and restore what is targeted. It runs until 5 Jan 2020, as does Art in Exile, which puts on display for the first time documents revealing IWM鈥檚 plan for evacuating our art collection during the Second World War.

The 2018 Imperial War Museum Free Thinking Lecture looked at how we remember war and asked Why are we silent when conflict is loud?
Peter Hitchens; Rector Lucy Winkett; Neil Bartlett and Professor Steve Brown joined Anne McElvoy and an audience. https://bbc.in/2odyOUM
