Symposia: Art and Science Now - The Two Cultures in Question

Posted by Victoria Tillotson in News on 24.01.09

Tate Modern Starr Auditorium
Saturday 24 January 2009, 10.30–17.30

Fifty years ago a lecture by C.P. Snow on 'The Two Cultures and the Scientific Revolution', deploring the gulf between artistic intellectuals and natural scientists, sparked a fierce debate about the 'Two Cultures'. Joining with the Science Museum, Tate Modern invites leading figures from the worlds of arts, science and public policy to revisit this question. With the new prominence of information technology, genetics and climate change, has the gap between arts and sciences narrowed or grown even wider in the last fifty years?
In collaboration with the London Consortium and the Science Museum
