Description

This interdisciplinary conference brings together speakers from the UK, Europe and North America to examine the ways in which our experiences of art, vision and movement are inseparable. View the conference programme PDF file icon to see a list of speakers and their subjects. Travel is often a prerequisite to putting oneself in a position to be able to see something, or to see it properly; physical effort is required to address the object or image appropriately. Conference papers ranging from classical antiquity to today on artefacts and environments in Europe, East Asia and the United States will examine the mobilisation of spectators as well as objects in various media.

All are welcome to this event - registration will be available from 13 June 2014. Conference attendance will cost £10 per day which includes refresments throughout the day. Limited accommodation is also available at an extra cost.
