Have you ever wondered what it's like to hear color? This Museum of Fine Arts gallery talk will unite art and medicine through a discussion of synesthesia, a neurologic condition that causes the blending of the senses. Particularly focusing on American artists influenced by music, such as Arthur Dove, Stuart Davis, and Joan Mitchell, we will explore the visual interpretation of these artists' auditory experiences. Join Chris and Erin Yuskaitis, physician-scientist and arts administrator respectively, for a truly unique gallery talk that combines art and science in the same breath.
June 30 2013, 2:00 pm - 3:00 pm
Free with cost of admission.
