It seems as if 'taste' is something over which there can’t be much argument. However, art appreciation carries on as if there are meaningful disputes.

The appeal of beauty is straightforward but what explains the appeal of tragic, comic or transgressive art? Tragic art asks that we contemplate horrifying events, evoking unpleasant emotions and feelings of disgust, ones we would avoid in real life. In comic art we are often amused by things which would not amuse us in everyday life. Thinking about these questions and looking at works in the gallery, this study day led by Matthew Kieran asks what it is about artistic representation that explains their appeal.08-02-2008 BP Artist Talk: David Batchelor

Recent theories of women, sex and gender have challenged the category of woman. The value of literature (and the other arts) has also been called into question.

Professor Toril Moi addresses these questions in the 2007 Feminist Theory lecture.16-11-2007 The Archival Impulse - Part 2

‘A cinematographic journey through the photographic atmospheres of Bill Brandt’ by renowned experimental filmmaker Steve Dwoskin. Many of the photographer's most famous images are presented, along with Brandt himself, who died in December 1983.

Since the mid 1980s, Wolfgang Tillmans has reinterpreted representational genres from portraiture to still life to landscape through the medium of photography.02-10-2007 Richard Hamilton
Made in collaboration with the artist Richard Hamilton, this documentary remains vivid and surprising nearly forty years on. Fragments of Hamilton’s works are integrated with newsreel images, movie trailers and much else. The artist offers an audio-only commentary, but this too is layered and disrupted.

Since 1977, when skulptur projekte münster first brought together artists from all over the world to define the relationship between art and the public, there have been great changes in the way artists engage with urban space and the public sphere, and in the way the public engages with art works. skulptur projekte münster 07, curated by Brigitte Franzen, Kasper König and Carina Plath, takes up the challenge to redefine these relationships.17-04-2007 Owusu Ankomah
Owusu Ankomah’s canvases employ geographically and historically diverse visual references, from Saharan rock painting and Italian Renaissance sculpture, to Ghanaian textile designs, Chinese calligraphy, New York graffiti and capoeira martial arts from Brazil. In a series of new works commemorating the 2007 bicentenary of the British parliamentary abolition of the slave trade, Owusu-Ankomah calls for a freedom not only of the body, but also of the spirit. Paying tribute to those who have historically struggled for emancipation and consciousness in the African diaspora, he declares through his work a manifesto of love and understanding to fill the space between past and future.16-04-2007 Sarah Kent on Gilbert and George

31-03-2007 Rethinking Spectacle
This symposium addresses recent claims that contemporary art is 'spectacularised' and increasingly inseparable from the marketing of large-scale museums. But what do we really mean by 'spectacle' today? And how useful are Guy Debord's ideas (Society of the Spectacle, 1967) for analysing new conditions of the display of contemporary art? Are The Unilever Series commissions such as Carsten Höller's Test Site really comparable to other forms of mass entertainment?28-03-2007 Hogarth Study Day Part 1

22-03-2007 Shifting Practice Session: 4
This conference explores the idea that artists’ installations draw into sharp focus the way in which contemporary artistic practice can potentially shift the organisational logic of the museum. Where is the dividing line between installation artist and curator? How should installations be conserved and reinstalled? How does this practice affect notions of artistic authorship? This conference looks at places of friction and resistance between contemporary art and traditional museum conventions, and considers how the roles of conservator and curator are evolving in response to particular artistic practices.22-03-2007 Shifting Practice Session: 3
