In December 2017, Lisbon receives the IV Iberian Meeting of Aesthetics, aiming to encourage collaboration between Spanish and Portuguese researchers in the field of philosophical aesthetics. It is also intended to extend the discussion to other scientific and artistic fields related to philosophy. ‘Aesthetics, Art and Intimacy’ will be the theme of this year’s edition.
Organized by/

SEyTA, Sociedad Española de Estética y Teoría de las Artes
The IV Iberian Aesthetic Meeting will address the main issues related to intimacy, both from the point of view of aesthetics and artistic creation. In this context, the theme of intimacy points to two distinct but complementary directions. On the one hand, upstream, we will address the public and private nature of aesthetic feelings and, on the other hand, downstream, we will see how artistic creation investigates intimacy in human relations. It will also be the occasion to reflect on the role of aesthetics and art in the creation of a sense of belonging and identity.
Themes /
1. Aesthetics and Intimacy
2. Art and Intimacy
3. Intimacy and identity
