Art and Science at the George Washington Wilson Centre

Art and Science at the George Washington Wilson Centre

PhD students Ian Grosz and Shailini Vinod talk with the directors of the George Washington Wilson Centre for Art and Visual Culture, Drs Silvia Cassini and Hans Hones, about how they are bringing the arts and sciences together through the activities of the centre.

The George Washington Wilson Centre brings together researchers from a wide range of disciplines. Its members share a common concern in investigating art and visual culture: what it is; how it functions across different times, places and contexts; how we encounter or understand it. The Centre facilitates a range of activities fostering collaborative research into art and visual culture, including a regular seminar series; an interdisciplinary reading group; international conferences; and public engagement events.

The Centre takes its name from George Washington Wilson, the renowned Aberdeen-based Victorian photographer. The entire collection of George Washington Wilson’s photographic plates is held by the University Library.
