24:14Now PlayingFrom elaborate machines that do not seem like artworks at first sight, to geometric structures, the works of Conrad Shawcross are ways of the artist studying philosophy and science. To the extent that he picks his high school math teacher and a friend of his who is a computer engineer as the mentors of his life, he shows enormous passion for science studies.Saying that he is attracted to scientific theories that had failed logically or methodologically, Shawcross reinterprets such theories in his own ways to create ambitious and structural sculptures.
Bloomberg and Hyundai Motor presents the 20th Brilliant Ideas Episode featuring Shawcross, who combines new emerging technologies and natural forces to inspire paradox and wonder in his works, ceaselessly endeavoring at the borders among science, philosophy, and art.
