Partnership set to offer hundreds of hours of new and archived arts programming online, on mobile and on digital TV
John Peel's record collection, the first film by Ridley Scott and all 37 of Shakespeare's plays – each in a different language – are among the highlights of a new digital joint venture between the BBC and Arts Council England.
The Space, which went live on Tuesday, will offer hundreds of hours of arts programming online, on mobile, and on digital TV.
Alan Davey, the chief executive of Arts Council England, said it was an "extraordinary way of experiencing an exceptional summer of arts".
Davey said the arts world had "yet to fully realise the potential of bringing artistic creatives together with digital media and this is a real exploration. If we can get this right we can find new ways of connecting the arts to a wider audience".
