Art’s Work in the Age of Biotechnology: Shaping Our Genetic Futures

On Friday October 18, the Genetic Engineering and Society (GES) Center, NC State University Libraries, and the Gregg Museum of Art & Design will host a full-day symposium to discuss the exhibition Art’s Work in the Age of Biotechnology: Shaping Our Genetic Futures. The symposium will bring together artists, humanists, and social/natural scientists, using the exhibition as a departure point for conversations about the future of biotechnology and genetics.

The symposium places art at the center of discussions about the future of biotechnology by presenting works in which artists appropriate tools and techniques of modern biotechnology that have until recently been the exclusive purview of scientists. The event will use the exhibition as a departure point for conversations about the future of biotechnology and genetics.

The morning session will be held at the Gregg Museum of Art & Design from 8:30-12:00 pm and continue at the NC State’s D.H. Hill Jr. Library Auditorium in the afternoon. In the afternoon session, three panels of artists will convene at D.H. Hill Jr. Library Auditorium to discuss topics in more detail.
