Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:

Consciousness has been an important subject in art for over a century, ever since Impressionism shifted artists' goals from the direct representation of the world to the expression of felt experience. This is an exploration of the nature of consciousness and its embodiment in many forms of contemporary art, including painting, sculpture, installation, video, film and new media. It accompanies an exhibition organized by the California College of Arts and Crafts.

Catalog published in connection with an exhibition opening Sept. 1999 at the CCAC Institute of the California College of Arts and Crafts, San Francisco.

Includes bibliographical references.
