Summary:Reviews 'The Thinking Body' at Jordan Schnitzer Museum of Art, University of Oregon, Eugene, from 26 June-7 September 2008, and at San Francisco Museum of Art and Design, from 17 October 2008-4 January 2009. The exhibition's remit was to examine perception of the body, and how the body interacts with the world round it; the reviewer comments that while the works, by international artists, were thought-provoking, innovative, and sometimes unsettling, some did not address the exhibition's aim, while the exhibition texts and catalogue included some turgid writing.
