How do biological entities serve as potent allegories for ideas of origination, purification, and the affirmation of a human role in the order of nature? The Graduate Program in Fine Arts hosts a panel presentation and discussion on the aesthetic language and landscapes of complexly regulated biological systems.
Speakers include Oron Catts, founder of SymbioticA, the world's first collaborative art and science laboratory, and Richard Doyle, professor of English and Science, Technology, and Society at Penn State University. Catts will present the early history of tissue culture laboratories, and Doyle will give a presentation titled "LSDNA."
Sponsored by the Graduate Program in Fine Arts.
