Gravity: Beauty

Kim L Pace at the Peak Lecture Theatre, Sheffield, 17th March 2011

All welcome

Gravity is a research project at Sheffield Institute of Arts at Sheffield Hallam University and the Millennium Gallery, Sheffield. Through a series of lectures, publications and exhibitions, the Gravity guest lecture series examines the contemporary relationship between making visual art and its sites of production and display. To begin the research a series of public lectures will examine the ways in which emotional and subjective encounters with objects can generate new work, methods and methodologies, philosophies and u-turns.
