Unlocking the Keys to Musical Expression

OSHR-700.94

Paul Michelson, MD

This talk will explore artists and their artistic styles and techniques, including realism, expressionism, abstractionism, and even optical illusion. The issue to be addressed is the relationship of these artistic styles to known human visual physiology. Do we see what the artist saw or wanted us to see? Do we really see reality? Has evolution of the visual system aided or deceived us?
