What are the characteristics of a supernormal stimulus? Are works of art that we recognise as masterpieces of history to be considered superstimuli? Can works of art today promote behaviours such as empathy, a sense of aesthetics, and community, thus functioning as a critical tool that generates change?
This volume opens up an initial interdisciplinary debate on the subject, reflecting on the importance of art and the effects it can generate in individuals, cultures, and societies.
"Superstimolo - Come il cervello partecipa all'opera d'arte" collects contributions by Numero Cromatico (Dionigi Mattia Gagliardi, Giulia Torromino, Manuel Focareta, Sara Cuono, Federica Marenghi, Salvatore Gaetano Chiarella), Emanuele Arielli, Dina Riccò, Renata Gambino and Grazia Pulvirenti, Franco "Bifo" Berardi, David Freedberg.
