Qestioning Aesthetics

Our two-day symposium explores questions relating to the potential for social critique and transformation in aesthetic (and related) practices and experiences, focusing on the interplay of minds and bodies. The symposium begins with presentations of an excerpt from This Situation by the celebrated artist Tino Sehgal and of Sufi whirling; it continues with reflections by invited philosophers and theorists, who will address the topic in panel discussions under several headings. 

Organised by National College of Art and Design and UCD School of Philosophy
