Join us in the gallery at Curwen for a lunchtime talk exploring the work of Susan Aldworth with Elenor Ling, Senior Curator of Prints and Drawings, The Fitzwilliam Museum, Cambridge.
Susan Aldworth is an artist with a background in philosophy, and a strong interest in investigating the workings of the human mind, especially consciousness and our sense of self. Her work on the relationship between the physical brain and our sense of identity has linked her with the Art & Science movement in the UK since the late 1990s, and she is an associate lecturer on the MA Art & Science at Central St Martins. Her work is held in many public and private collections including the V&A, the British Museum, The Fitzwilliam Museum, the British Library and The Wellcome Collection Library in the
UK, and Williams College Museum of Art in the USA. Aldworth has exhibited widely both nationally and internationally. Aldworth is represented by TAG Fine Art, and is a regular presenter on BBC Radio 3 and 4. As well as being a Trustee of the Curwen Print Study Centre, Susan was one of the last artists to collaborate with Stanley Jones at
the Curwen.
We are delighted to welcome Elenor Ling, Senior Curator of Prints and Drawings at the Fitzwilliam Museum, Cambridge to discuss Susan's work with us in our gallery space, surrounded by Susan's lithographs from the Reassembling the Self, CODE and Dreaming Voices suites. This fascinating talk is free but please register for a place as spaces are limited.
