Uovo 13

UOVO #13 (COLOUR SPECTRUM) MARCH 2007
Mind and Brain

UOVO 13 displays interviews, essays, projects and works about and around the theme of the brain, amid Art and Science. For a human brain contains synapses and memories, grey matter and dreams, concepts and obsessions, numbers, instincts... A range of capabilities to be spread or measured up, a whole rainbow of activities: implications and suggestions are converging from different disciplines, from neurology to sociology, from installation to photography. Impressions illusions and knowledge of the world outside compared to our impressions, illusions and knowledge of our inner world are themes held together like in an exhibition. The brain is wider than the sky (Emily Dickinson).
