The Phenomenology of Surprise with Jeanette Andrews 

What differentiates surprise from the weird, the interesting or the startling? NAC Artist Fellow Jeanette Andrews’ unique practice as a magician and artist have afforded her unique insights into this topic which inspired her installation and performance work “Taken by Artificial Surprise” and recent talk on this topic for the British Society of Aesthetics. Jeanette Andrews, 2023/2024 NAC Artist Fellow, is an artist, magician, and speaker. She has presented commissioned works with the Museum of Contemporary Art Chicago and Quebec City Biennial, as well as talks for Cooper Hewitt, Chicago Ideas Week, corporations, and universities. She has been an artist-in-residence for the University of Houston’s Mitchell Center and Affiliate of metaLab (at) Harvard. Her performances have been praised by the PBS and The New York Times.
