Film Screening / Discussion / Exhibition
Monday, February 20, 2017, at 7:00 p.m., Maison des Etudiants Aimé Schoenig Richter.
Open to all – Free admission

Description:

This evening event—which will combine screenings of short film excerpts, a discussion , and an exhibition of scientific images—aims to explore the relationship between two fields that , at first glance, seem distant but are in fact particularly complementary: Art and Science.
The first part of the program will feature two visual segments, each lasting approximately 45 minutes. The first will provide an overview of issues related to counting, symmetry, and scale, while the second will focus on questions of experience and process. The screening will be followed by a discussion, accompanied by a tour of an exhibition featuring scientific and artistic images from the COSA group. A casual cocktail reception will conclude the evening.
The COSA group was born out of a shared commitment by the Institut Charles Gerhardt Montpellier (ICGM), the Institut d’Electronique et des Systèmes (IES), the National School of Architecture of Montpellier (ENSAM), and the Montpellier Méditerranée Métropole School of Fine Arts (ESBAMA), to explore and experiment with the inter Research, Science, and Art, with the aim of fostering joint projects at the intersection of these themes within their respective institutions.
