ART SCIENCE CONNECT: AN INITIATIVE OF THE GRADUATE CENTER, CUNY
The pursuits of art and science have always been linked. Historically, they have shared common concerns, methods, goals, and even practitioners.
Today, in our hyper-specialized world, we see the need for a productive dialogue between contemporary practices of art, science, and technology. We seek to explore the ways in which they inform one another and to point the way to new modes of collaboration. We invite the public to engage with us in this conversation.
Better Together
Art Science Connect brings scientists, artists, and interdisciplinary scholars together at The Graduate Center for public conversation and innovative programs that encourage forward-looking collaboration.
We invite you to explore our website to learn about upcoming and past events.
