Fritjof Capra: Art Meets Science and Spirituality, Part 5: The Shifting Paradigm

Physicist Fritjof Capra speaking of the paradigm shift towards a systematic worldview; Hindu scholar and Catholic priest Raimon Panikkar discussing socio-economics, art, science, religion, and beauty; and performance artist Marina Abramovic explaining her investigation of physical limits and mental potentials. Artists, scientists, spiritual leaders and economists gathered in Amsterdam in 1990 to explore the emerging paradigm of a holistic world view and the implications for a global economy. The five day conference was inspired by the artists Joseph Beuys and Robert Filliou, and manifested by Louwrien Wijers, who called it a “mental sculpture.”
