In October 2023, we announced a series of events to mark the centenary of the birth of the philosopher Richard Wollheim (1923-2003).
The Richard Wollheim Centenary programme took place in Oxford during the academic year 2023-24, comprising a series of in-person events including informal lectures, discussion seminars and other presentations, around the exhibition of Patrice Moor’s work, The Presence of Absence.
Now available to view online (register on wollheimcentenary.org to receive the links):
The gallery talks given during the Centenary Project’s collaboration with Patrice Moor, collage artist, and her exhibition ‘The Presence of Absence’ held in St John’s College Exhibition Galleries.
The inaugural talk by Derek Matravers (The Open University) ‘The Role of Psychoanalysis in Richard Wollheim’s Philosophy of Art’ (given on 4th December 2023).
The closing lecture recorded by Daniel Herwitz (University of Michigan) ‘Richard Wollheim in Memory’ is part-intellectual biography, part-personal memory, by turns humorous and poignant.
