Event\/Activity\/Description
\n<\/strong><\/p>\n

Prof Nikolai Zhelev and Curator Clare Brennan will discuss the exhibition \u2018Hearts\u2019 which is part of pair of shows title \u2018Hearts and Minds\u2019 across two spaces; the Hannah Maclure Centre at Abertay University and LifeSpace at the University of Dundee.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

This talk will focus on the Hannah Maclure Centre exhibition which explores scientific and artistic research relating to our life-giving organ, examining incredible breakthroughs in life sciences research and sharing the work of internationally renowned artists whose practice is concerned with the heart.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

In Prof\u00a0 Zhelev\u2019s lab, miniature beating hearts are developed from human cells reprogrammed to grow as tiny hearts which are then used to investigate preventions and cures of heart disease. This inspired an exhibition of work from artists working across a variety of media, examining the heart in transplantation, the heart as a system and the heart as a poetic object.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Opening times for the exhibitions are as follows:
\n<\/span>Hearts Exhibition<\/span><\/i>: Preview night – Friday 11 September, 6pm-8pm
