Science & Art
Everyone experiences changes in eyesight, as they grow older. As a consequence the way we see the world changes over time. This is most dramatic for those who reproduce what they see in an artistic form – painters in particular. Are weaknesses and failings of their ageing eyes reflected in their pictures? Are there characteristic changes in their style?
The project Science & Art attempts to assess the influence of changed visual perception on the oeuvre of famous artists.
