GV ART & MIND SYMPOSIUM 28
Our guest speaker is Professor John Onians.
His new and ground breaking book is European Art: a neuroarthistory and he will be discussing this at our Symposium. This is an event not to be missed for all those interested in the themes that Art and Mind has been exploring since its inception.
John Onians, FSA (born 1942) is Professor Emeritus of World Art at the University of East Anglia, Norwich and specialised in architecture, especially the architectural theory of the Italian Renaissance; painting, sculpture and architecture in Ancient Greece and Rome; Byzantine art, material culture, metaphor and thought; perception and cognition, and the biological basis of art. His recent work has been instrumental in the establishment of Neuroarthistory as a distinct set of methodologies.
