Documentaries are also produced alongside major exhibitions and collections, such as AZTECS, Turner and Venice and Constable at Tate and Islamic Art at the V&A.
Some programmes originally made originally for television are now released for purchase on DVD, including the RSC's Macbeth, Chris Petit and Iain Sinclair's London Orbital and the landmark 1980s 6-part series, State of the Art.
