Highlights from Exit Art's latest program "Brainwave: Common Senses," exploring the brain through art and science.

BRAINWAVE: Common Senses responds to current advancements in neurological research by visualizing and investigating the brain's capacity for sense perception, memory, emotion and logic. The artists in this exhibition redefine this research in a different way, abandoning literal representations of the brain and categorical analysis in favor of works that take, as starting points, elements from neuroscience and flipping these ideas on their heads.

These works create an alternate discourse between art and science, encouraging the viewer to consider the brain not only as the center of human activity but as a site for interpretation. This exhibition presents the brain as a site for scientific and philosophical debates, for examining our relationship to the world -- and for questioning our common sense.

Exit Art is located at 475 10th ave in New York City.
Brainwave runs from 2/16 until 4/19 2008.
