About the Book

What is art? What is beauty? How do they relate? Where does consciousness come in? What about truth? And can science help us with issues of this kind? Because such questions go to the very heart of current conflicts about Western value systems, they are unlikely to receive definitive answers. But they are still very much worth exploring - which is precisely the purpose of this collection of papers ("Journal of Consciousness Studies, 7, No.8/9"), with particular attention to the relationships between art and science.

Table of Contents:
Part I Commentaries on the science of art, V.S. Ramachandran, William Hirstein: concerning "The Science of Art", E.H. Gombrich; response to Gombrich, V.S. Ramachandran; connecting the cerebral cortex with the artist's eyes, mind and culture, Amy Ione; perceptual principles as the basis for genuine judgements of beauty, Jennifer Anne MacMahon; against the reduction of art to galvanic skin response, Donnya Wheelwell. Part II Papers delivered at the Cognitive Science Conference on Perception, Consciousness and Art, Vrije Universiteit Brussel, 17-19 May 1999: two sciences of perception and visual art - editorial introduction to the Brussels papers, Erik Myin; an enquiry into Paul Cezanne - the role of the artist in studies of perception and consciousness, Amy Ione; the cognitive neuroscience of art - a preliminary fMRI observation, Robert Solso; aesthetic ineffability, Rafael De Clercq; "Seeing As" and the double bind of consciousness, Jennifer Church; red and yellow, green and blue, warm and cool - explaining colour appearance, C.L. Hardin. Part III Further refereed papers and reviews: experience and experiment in art, Alva Noe; using science to investigate Jackson Pollack's Drip paintings, Richard P. Taylor, Adam P. Micolich, David Jonas; "Reframing Consciousness"- review article, Glenn English; "Visual Space Perception" - review article, Joseph A. Gaguen.
