Brain: The Mind As Matter at Wellcome Collection

Dive into the gooey grey matter that helps you read this sentence, at the Wellcome Collection's latest exhibition on all things cranial. Featuring over 150 artefacts, including some actual real brains, plus artworks, manuscripts, artefacts, videos and photography, this display aims to showcase the long quest to manipulate and decipher that most unique and mysterious of human organs. This is all about the physical object itself, almost always hidden from view, very often taken for granted, but also the site of much medical intervention, scientific enquiry, cultural meaning and technological change.
