BIOL1921

This seminar will explore the many and diverse interactions between art and biology. The topics covered range from the portrayal of biology in classic art, to the use of artistic venues for studying and remediating environmental problems, to the utility of photography, painting, sculpture, and other art forms to explore levels of biology ranging from molecular and cellular structures to landscapes. The course includes hands-on creation of artistic biological objects. Topics will be explored using recorded media and presentations by students, the instructor, and invited speakers to cover novel topics at the art/biology interface.
