Beyond Seeing
The Senses in Art

Led by Nigel Warburton, author of The Art Question
Mondays 4 June 2007 – 9 July 2007, 18.30–20.00

Our experience of art and our construction of reality depend intimately upon our senses. Although our sense of sight predominates in the appreciation of visual art, other senses come into play in a variety of ways. Philosopher Nigel Warburton, author of The Art Question, leads this six-session course which explores the nature and role of our various senses in relation to works within the Tate Modern collection. Participants will have the opportunity to discuss a range of theoretical positions and test their application against particular works in the gallery. No prior knowledge of philosophy or art history is assumed.
