The best of the world's arts, film, music and literature brought to you every day.

On today’s programme Harriett Gilbert talks to Maria Noel and Laureana Toledo on what, if anything, is Latin American Art? As this year's PINTA brings an international gathering of artists to London, we hear the view from Argentina and Mexico. As Hay, the UK's top literary festival is just over, we discuss literary prizes with award-winning writers: do they have any value and influences, do they inspire burgeoning writers?
