Chaired by Dr Samantha Lackey, research fellow at the AHRC Research Centre for Studies of Surrealism and its Legacies, Manchester University.

To coincide with Jake and Dinos Chapman: Bad Art for Bad People, the Chapman brothers' first major retrospective show, this research forum deals with corporeal visions in artistic practice, the fascination with transgressing the boundaries of the body in art, and the capacity of this type of work to horrify and captivate in equal measure.
