ICA - What New Is: David Byrne and Geoffrey Miller October 10, 2007

October 10, 2007
Wednesday, 06:30 PM

Tickets: $25 general admission; $20 members, seniors, and students

Take a radical look at art with artist and Grammy-winning musician David Byrne and evolutionary psychologist Geoffrey Miller. In his recent book "The Mating Mind: How Sexual Choice Shaped the Evolution of Human Nature," Miller applies ideas from evolutionary psychology and sexual selection to creativity. In conversation, the two lay siege to the world of contemporary art and culture—Miller as a scientist, and Byrne as a practitioner and fan. Stay for a New England premiere book signing immediately after the program as David Byrne signs copies of his book "Arboretum." Tickets go on sale to Associate level members and above on August 16, general public on September 1
