Navigating Art &\; Science
\nCurated by: Cynthia Roth\, Marge Rack\, and Ronda Faloon
\nAugust 28 &ndash\; October 13 | An Invitational show
\nOpening Reception: Sunday\, September 14\, 4-6pm
\nGallery Hours: Thursday-Sunday\, 12-5pm
Navigating Art &\; Science \;featuring eight artists who are deeply involved in scientific inquiry and activism. While local scientists search for ways to help ocean species be more resilient to survive the rapidly changing marine environment\, these artists\, alert to the predicament\, are creating art with urgent messages for stewardship and action.
\n\nThe exhibit coincides with a city-wide initiative \;STAND UP for Art &\; Science\, coordinated by Gloucester Marine Genomics Institute volunteers.
\n\nWhile all the work in the exhibition has been created in response to human impact on the environment\, in addition\, several of the artists have been inspired by expeditions to the Arctic Circle and Greenland and residencies in marine laboratories on Cape Ann and beyond. The seven-week exhibit shows how art can transform the impact and implications of science into something concrete\, visible and personal.
