Title: Geographia: The Unexplored Terrain
Location: CENTRAL BOOKING
Description: Admission: $5
Join us for our latest panel of artists and scientists who converge over the very visual discipline of cartography. Cartographers can tell us more than just the routes from one point to another, they can map terrains of landscape or psychological space, that amorphous state that adds up to a sense of a place beyond mere cataloging. They can also reduce all to the basic, the pure essence of line and plane. For an artist, these are natural places for their curiosity to roam. Doug Beube, an artist in the Mapping the Surface exhibition, moderates the panel that also includes fellow exhibitors Dannielle Tegeder, Robbin Ami Silverberg and Leif Percifield of Public Laboratories.
Start Time: 6:30pm

Title: C Bangs & Greg Matloff Book launch and presentation
Location: CENTRAL BOOKING
Description: “Biosphere Extension: Solar System Resources for the Earth”
Longtime collaborators C. Bangs and Greg Matloff present their first artist book. “Biosphere Extension: Solar System Resources for the Earth” began with combining the resources of three books and five years consulting for NASA and working as NASA Faculty Fellows with dialogs that have been ongoing since they first met in 1982. The four sections of the book integrate the text of astronomer Matloff with the images composed by artist Bangs, whose feminist ecological art parallels the duo’s work on space and space resources.
C Bangs’s work is included in public and private collections as well as in books and journals. Public Collections include the Library of Congress, NASA’s Marshall Spaceflight Center, New York City College of Technology, Pratt Institute, Cornell University, and Pace University. Her art has been included in seven books and two peer- reviewed journal articles, several magazine articles and art catalogs. Merging art and science, she worked as a NASA Faculty Fellow; under a NASA grant she investigated holographic interstellar probe message plaques.

Title: Art: Color and Optics
Location: CENTRAL BOOKING
Description: Admission: $5
In conjunction with the exhibition Now You See it… Color and the Mind’s Eye, this panel discussion features participating artists Kirsten Hoving, Jo Yarrington and Adrienne Klein (moderator) who discuss the influence that color and the properties of optics have on their art making. They are joined by neuroscientist Dr. Edward Vessel, as he elucidates the science behind the brain and aesthetic experience and Dr. Cindie Kehlet, who brings her own perspective to the discussion as both a chemist and an artist.
Dr. Edward Vessel trained in neuroscience at USC and is an Assistant Research Scientist at the Center for Brain Imaging, New York University. His research interests include investigating the neural basis for aesthetic judgment and visual preferences as well as developing behavioral, psychophysiological, and imaging techniques for measuring preferences, aesthetic responses and information seeking.
Dr. Cindie Kehlet was awarded the 2006 Danish Young NMR Researcher Prize for her work in biological solid-state Nuclear Magnetic Resonance spectroscopy. Also a studio-trained fine artist, she explores the applications of NMR techniques to the science of art conservation. She is an Assistant Professor in the Math and Science department of Pratt Institute, where she teaches, among other courses, the chemistry of pigments and the nature of color.
Kirsten Hoving’s research interests revolve around her teaching fields at Middlebury College: modern art and history of photography. She has published widely on surrealism, with a particular interest in the intersection between surrealist art and science, as seen in her recent book, Joseph Cornell and Astronomy: A Case for the Stars, published by Princeton University Press in 2009.
Jo Yarrington is a Professor of Studio Art in the Department of Visual and Performing Arts at Fairfield University. Her drawings, photographs, and architecturally-based installations have been shown internationally. Sites for exhibitions of her work in the U.S.A. include the Cathedral Church of St. John the Divine, the DeCordova Museum and the Aldrich Contemporary Art Museum.
Adrienne Klein (moderator) is co-Director of the Science & the Arts series at the Graduate Center of the City University of New York. She is incoming Chair of the Leonardo Education and Art Forum, an affiliated society of the College Art Association. Her work has been exhibited internationally and is included in the book Confronting Mortality with Art and Science (VUB Press, Brussels, Belgium).
