Elizabeth Fremantle on Artemisia Gentileschi, French horn player Felix Klieser, logo design

Novelist Elizabeth Fremantle on 17th-century Italian artist Artemisia Gentileschi, French horn player Felix Klieser, digital logo design with Adrian Shaughnessy and Marina Willer.

Elizabeth Fremantle talks about her novel β€˜Disobedient’, which explores the story of the extraordinary C17th woman artist, Artemisia Gentileschi, and how the traumatic events of her seventeenth year influenced her visceral biblical paintings like β€˜Judith Slaying Holofernes’.

Ahead of his premiere at the Proms, French horn player Felix Klieser plays in the studio for Front Row and tells Samira Ahmed how, aged four, he surprised his family with his choice of instrument. Born without arms, he explains how he plays by pressing the valves with the toes of his left foot.

The potential of digital logo design is investigated by graphic artists Adrian Shaughnessy and Marina Willer.
