much to learn from visual art. Understanding why artists deploy particular
configurations of colour and form and how particular paintings elicit aesthetic
and cognitive responses gives valuable insight into how human vision works. Recently,
precise quantitative studies of colours in paintings have revealed regularities
that may have implications for their perceived beauty. Empirical studies have
also shown that the spectral and spatial properties of lighting on paintings affects
their aesthetic and emotional impact. This workshop will bring together vision
scientists and museum specialists to discuss these issues and how their knowledge
may be used to improve the viewer’s experience of art. <span></span></span></p>
