This event celebrates two new complementary publications: the AD issue Beauty Matters and the book about the Tallinn Architecture Biennale (TAB) 2019, on the same topic. Both take an interdisciplinary approach to the re-emerging interest in beauty across neuroscience, neuroesthetics, mathematics, philosophy and architecture. Each publication contains a different content by a different set of contributors.
The evening will start with a screening of the Mies.TV documentary film about TAB 2019 - Why does beauty matter? - followed by a conversation with an emphasis on the experience of beauty from the neuroesthetic point of view, highlighting why architecture and beauty need each other, and an opportunity to experience, individually, Paula Strunden‘s VR-MR installation The Talking Trees of Tallinn.
