Each year the Department of Psychology at the University of Trieste celebrates the work of the pioneeer visual scientist Gaetano Kanizsa with the Kanizsa Lecture. Kanizsa (1913-1993), whose name is widely known from the illusory figures and contours he created such as the famous Kanizsa Triangle, was an influential cognitive psychologist working in the Gestalt tradition, but he was also an artist. He was the founder of the Institute of Psychology of Trieste. Previous Kanizsa lecturers include Irvin Rock, Vilayanur Ramachandran, Philip Johnson-Laird, Richard Gregory, Elizabeth Spelke, Melvyn Goodale, and Steven Palmer.”
