Saturday 29 November 2008, 14.00–17.00

Francis Bacon's isolated figures and distorted faces were analysed by Gilles Deleuze and from this he developed a series of philosophical concepts that have produced some of the most creative and challenging approaches to painting and aesthetics. Dr Simon O'Sullivan, Dr Darren Ambrose, Margarita Gluzberg and Andrew Conio discuss how this entanglement has fashioned new ways of understanding painting and writing, producing ideas that have had an impact far beyond the domains of aesthetics and philosophy.
