Episode 1: The economist with an eye for art Unapologetically

Professor Canice Prendergast is fascinated by artists who see the world through a different lens. He's an economist at the University of Chicago and has curated the business school's art collection in Chicago and Hong Kong since 2007. His mission is to expose the school's students to contemporary art on a daily basis, thereby provoking debate and developing their ability to problem-solve. 
In this podcast series, the University of Chicago Booth School of Business explores the themes portrayed in the art on view at its Robert Rothman '77 London campus. Taking a pioneering approach, the school uses art as a tool to inspire curiosity in its MBA students and to stimulate discussion around global issues.
Join presenter Emma Clark as she interviews curators and artists to unpack the complexities in their work and explore how art deals with globalisation, racial identity, gender, the role of the media and so much more.
