Beauty and the Beast | Lecture Series 2026
speakers:
Dr Hab. Jacek Rogala
Arch. Beata Bajno
Dr Joanna Dreszer
Prof. Dr. Hab. Marek Kuś
The "Beauty and the Beast" series is an invitation to consider whether science can bring us closer to art. Can analyses of the physical, biological and psychological phenomena accompanying the creation and reception of art help us understand what we feel and why? The meetings will also be devoted to inspirations arising at the intersection of these fields.
First lecture:
