How Art Interacts with How We Think and Feel

BBC World Service - The Cultural Frontline, How Art Interacts with How We Think and Feel

The power of art, music, film and poetry to alter our state of mind

Performance artist Marina Abramovic explains why she thinks technology is interfering with our experience of art.

With Tina Daheley.

Have our brains become too tapped into technology to be able to appreciate art properly? Performance artist Marina Abramovic tells us why she thinks so. Journalist Agnes Poirier reports from Paris where an exhibition is providing much needed comfort through art and music. Plus scary films can make a lasting impact on our psyche, but only if we get a chance to watch them. Horror fan and artist Aowen Jin explores the murky subject of whether the ghost films she loves are really banned in China.
