ART+BRAIN: A CATALOGUE OF STORIES AND STRUCTURES
From the metaphorical potency of anatomical art and stories that probe decision circuits and mirror neurons in monkeys, to revolutionary biological visualizations of the dynamics of cellular and sub-cellular structures, ART + BRAIN: Stories and Structures explores the complex histories, practices, and interconnections between art, architecture, medicine and neuroscience, with the human brain as the central focus.
// Co-organized by Patricia Olynyk (Washington University in St. Louis) and Victoria Vesna (UCLA Art|Sci Center + Lab)

MORPHO NANO
A retrospective exhibition of a decade of artworks created by media artist Victoria Vesna and nanoscientist James Gimzewski. Their collaborative works create an intersection of space, time and embodiment by employing a very subtle and responsive energetic exchange. By reversing the scale of nanotechnology to the realm of human experience, the artist and scientist create a sublime reversal of space-time. Morpho Nano featured the premiere of a new collaboration between Mark Cohen and Victoria Vesna—BRAIN STORMING.
// Organized by David Familian (Beall Center for Art + Technology at UC Irvine)
