Dalinian Science, Perception and Brain Research

Craig Petersburg, Dali Museum Curator

This lecture investigates how our brain receives and interprets information gathered by our senses, especially vision. Scientists did not invent the vast majority of visual illusions, artists did. Salvador Dalí was a leader in this area through Surealism and his double image paintings. Our perception has changed over the centuries and is entering what is becoming known as the Conceptual Age. Join us for this visually exciting presentation.
