Conversation on Contemplation and Creativity, with Matthieu Ricard and Philip Glass, moderated by Mark Epstein. Monday, September 13 at 7pm, as part of FIAF Fall Festival.
The practice of contemplation has long been a critical element in many artists’ working process, and is often embedded in their resulting work. Artists, scientists and spiritual leaders all help develop our understanding of this profoundly human phenomenon. Several artists in this year’s Crossing the Line festival such as Eliane Radigue, Ryoji Ikeda, Richard Garet, and Raimund Hoghe quite explicitly evoke a level of sustained attention.
