art detail from Robleto show at Block Museum

03.09.23 Block Museum Tour: The Heart’s Knowledge: Science and Empathy Exhibition

The exhibit, The Hearts Knowledge: Science and Empathy in the Art of Dario Robleto marks the culmination of Robleto’s five-year engagement as Artist-at-Large in Northwestern University’s McCormick School of Engineering and Applied Science. This exhibition reflects the spirit of that enterprise, expanding conversations around ethics and empathy in scientific fields, and inviting us to look and listen to the life that surrounds us with curiosity and compassion.

Thursday, March 9th at 12-12:45 PM, where a Block Museum Student Associate will share a brief art talk.

RSVP HERE

The Hearts Knowledge concentrates on the most recent decade of Robleto’s creative practice, a period of deepening engagement with histories of medicine, biomedical engineering, sound recording, and space exploration. The exhibition organizes the artist’s conceptually ambitious, elegantly wrought artworks as a series of multisensory encounters between art and science.
