The content of the papers which will be delivered ranges from a consideration of the feelings that a position of unfamiliarity and incomprehension can provoke, to exploring how different paint types can offer different types of narrative.The symposium will include a late lunch and a private view of the international touring exhibition, (detail).

Speakers: Professor Beth Harland, Dr Richard Davey and Iain Andrews, Dr Catherine Ferguson, Ann Bukantas, Andrew Bracey
