  • The Art of Evolution: Charles Darwin and Visual Cultures
    The Art of Evolution: Charles Darwin and Visual Cultures Thursday 2 - Saturday 4 July 2009 Kenneth Clark Lecture Theatre, The Courtauld Institute of Art Somerset House, Strand, London WC2R 0RN Convened by Fae Brauer, Barbara Larson and Gavin Parkinson In this Darwin bicentenary year, the full impact of the research and theories of the naturalist who spent most of his life in Down House at Downe is coming to the fore. Few intellectual disciplines have remained untouched by the thought of Charles Darwin, as revealed by visual cultures in the form of art, anthropological, medical, and scientific imagery, as well as the popular images that feature in the press. This is the subject matter of the conference and events to be held under the title, The Art of Evolution: Charles Darwin and Visual Cultures, at The Courtauld Institute of Art from 2-4 July 2009. The Art of Evolution: Charles Darwin and Visual Cultures will explore the impact of Charles Darwin on visual cultures through the examination of aesthetics, the museum, slavery and concepts of indigenous people, as well as the representation of animals. It will investigate the repercussions of Darwin's theories upon images of the body, eugenics and genetics, sexualities, Surrealism, film and contemporary art. Including exhibitions and film screenings, the conference will conclude with a reading of Justin Fleming's provocative new play, Origin, directed by Wayne Harrison. The book, The Art of Evolution: Darwin, Darwinism and Visual Culture, co-edited by Barbara Larson and Fae Brauer, will be launched at this conference. To book a place: We are offering early registration (until 1 May 2009) for the conference at the following rates: Full: £60; Students/concessions: £30.
