On Show : Contemporary ceramics in the Goodison gift in the context of a historic museum collection.
A rare opportunity to hear different perspectives on how the art of display can animate objects and deepen insight into historical collections.
The
study day will draw on two current displays exclusive to the
Fitzwilliam Museum: the Goodison gift of contemporary ceramics and
the exhibition Things
of Beauty Growing: British Studio Pottery.
Speakers include four internationally-acclaimed UK ceramicists whose
work features in both displays: Julian Stair, Carol McNicoll, Philip
Eglin and Jennifer Lee. The study day concludes with a conversation
between Amanda and Sir Nicholas Goodison, followed by the opportunity
to share reflections on the subject.
Art has the power to affect our thinking, changing not only the way we view and interact with the world but also how we create it. In Art and Mind, Ernst van Alphen probes this idea of art as a commanding force with the capacity to shape our intellect and intervene in our lives. Rather than interpreting art as merely a reflection of our social experience or a product of history, van Alphen here argues that art is a historical agent, or a cultural creator, that propels thought and experience forward.
