Per buona parte del secolo auto e cinema hanno camminato insieme. Due cinematismi opposti, spinti verso lo stesso destino: il paesaggio che scorre, gli incontri, le persone, i caratteri. Il cinema, come tutte le esperienze iniziatiche, ha il potere di fissare in uno stesso spazio-tempo emotività e conoscenza, scoperta di sé attraverso la scoperta degli altri. È qualcosa che agisce nel profondo, irrinunciabile nella nostra vita.

All of this contributes to making the Musée d'Orsay one of the most alive and striking museums ever.

In Strange Tools: Art and Human Nature, philosopher and cognitive scientist Alva Noë raises a number of profound questions: What is art? Why do we value art as we do? What does art reveal about our nature? Drawing on philosophy, art history, and cognitive science, and making provocative use of examples from all three of these fields, Noë offers new answers to such questions. He also shows why recent efforts to frame questions about art in terms of neuroscience and evolutionary biology alone have been and will continue to be unsuccessful.
