Museum Dr. Guislain and Ziekenzorg CM presentFrom Memory. About knowing and forgetting10/10/2009 - 02/05/2010  People remember and people know. But people ‘forget’ also. From Memory deals with the fascination for memory in the worlds of science and art.
The exhibition sheds a light on an age-old search: from the medieval art of memory, over the earliest psychological research, to contemporary experiments with artificial intelligence. Artists draw inspiration from memories. From Memory presents medieval treatises, old and modern art, photographs and film excerpts. Memory is a manifestation of human potential, memory disease is one of failure. Libraries, encyclopaedias and the internet are all attempts to collect information and thus help our memories. But are they not doomed to failure? Besides, what is dementia and what is an elephantine memory?Exhibition catalogue (D/F/E), Lannoo, 192 p., full-colour (with contributions by Christine Van Broeckhoven, Mark Ruyters, Bernard Dewulf, Maja Wolny, Douwe Draaisma a.o.)
