LUNCHTIME PHILOSOPHY

Kaldor Public Art Projects, in close collaboration with The School of Life presents hour-long Lunchtime Philosophy talks from Monday 29 June to Friday 3 July. Five compelling sessions offer a broader philosophical and cultural context to Kaldor Public Art Project 30 and to performance art, inviting audiences to reflect upon and share their owninsights. Expert speakers from the fields of philosophy, psychology, art and neuroscience, examine both western and eastern philosophical frameworks for thinking about identity, the self and other; the connections between the mind, body and nature; historical and contemporary understandings of the present moment, what it means for anything to exist, and what happens to our psyches when we spend time alone.
