In Cultural Cities (Budapest, Buenos Aires, Chicago, Lisbon and Monte Carlo are among the world’s most exciting and glamorous cities) Patrick Bade will explore their cultural life in periods when they were “hot”. He will take a broad view, examining architecture, visual arts, music and performing arts, social life, fashion, food and shopping.

BUENOS AIRES

Birth place of the tango and home of the great Teatro Colon, Buenos Aires is the most elegant and sophisticated cultural capital in the Southern Hemisphere. In its splendid heyday Buenos Aires emulated Paris and could afford to invite the world’s most celebrated musical and theatrical performers.
