Laurens Landeweerd (1976) studied philosophy at the University of Amsterdam and Culture&Science at Maastricht University. He wrote his PhD thesis in the field of medical ethics, and is currently working on a second thesis on the notion of time in physics, the life sciences and the neurosciences. Landeweerd currently works for the Institute of Science in Society at Radboud University’s Faculty of Science, as well iArts, the interdisciplinary bachelor of the Maastricht Institute of Arts. For both positions, he focuses on the genres of the imagination in relation to science and technology.
In a project line guided by Maastricht-based artist Juul Sadee and Laurens Landeweerd, the first year students of iArts create an exposition each year for museum dr Josef Guislain in Ghent. This museum visualises insanity in thematic exhibitions, on digital platforms. The museum hosts both public and educational activities on psychiatry, its history, on outsider art, etc. The museum thus creates platforms to discuss mental pathologies in their societal context. Landeweerd will provide for an introductory lecture on his work in this relation between psychiatry, art and philosophy. - Mark KinetPsychiatrist and chief editor of the series Psychoanalytisch Actueel.
