PUBLIC TALK: Science, Art & Ethics Panel

Science, Art & Ethics Panel; Location: Paccar Theatre, Dublin, Ireland

Join us for a special discussion on science, art, ethics, and the sparks (and inspirations) that arise when the three combine.

A must-see for artists, curators, scientists, and anyone interested in cutting-edge use of biological materials, this panel discussion will bring together world leaders working at the interface of science, art, and ethics.

The panelists will address the ethical problems raised by using living material in art, the ethical hurdles of exhibiting with human tissue, and many more questions raised by the combination of new medical and artistic technologies.

Featured panelists include: Oron Catts, Co-founder of SymbioticA and previous exhibitor of 'Victimless Leather' at Science Gallery; Dr Steven Potter, the Georgia Tech Professor involved with Silent Barrage; Robert Devcic of GV Art, who's newest exhibit was recently featured in the Guardian; Michael John Gorman, Director of the Science Gallery.

This event is also part of the 2011 Trinity Arts Festival, Dublin, Ireland.
