Art & Science: Merging Art & Science to Make a Revolutionary New Art Movement
Exhibition at GV Art Gallery, London – 8 July – 24 September 2011
Science is changing our world and our lives at an ever-increasing rate. But today artists are bringing science out of the laboratory. Nowhere is this more evident than in biology-inspired art which, by its very nature, necessitates collaboration between an artist and a scientist. This is the theme of the exhibition Merging Art & Science.
Once art and science seemed diametrically opposite; but these days some of the most innovative artists are fusing art and science to create a brand new art movement inspired by science. Striving to visualise the invisible and what it will mean to be human in the future, they create images and objects of stunning beauty, redefining the notion of ‘aesthetic’ and of what is meant by art.
Weaving the Universe: From Atoms to Stars
Exhibition at the Ernst Schering Foundation, Berlin – 9 September – 9 October, 2010
Art and Science Exhibition with Fiorella Lavado
Weaving the Universe: From Atoms to Stars originates from a unique collaboration between an artist and a scientist. It seeks to evoke the ambiguity and beauty of the cosmos in the large – black holes and wormholes – and in the small – atoms, electrons and light quanta – while exploring the human mind, the means by which we imagine these strange worlds.
Into the Crucibles of Nature
Exhibition at Benaki Museum, Athens – 30th September 2009
Art – Fiorella Lavado / Science – Arthur I. Miller
“We are trying to glimpse the mysteries and wonders of the cosmos. This is possible only by going beyond science as it is customarily understood – by means of a combination of art and science. In this way we can jointly explore deep space, and deep time, out there, many light years away.”
