The project is co-directed by Antony Aumann, Professor of Philosophy at Northern Michigan University, and Hans Maes, Senior Lecturer in History and Philosophy of Art at the University of Kent, UK. The aim of this conference is to investigate how works of art, and certain kinds of aesthetic practices or aesthetic experiences, can be of existential importance to people. The conference will be free for all attending. Discounted lodging and meals will be available on the campus.
