Science Inspires Art 2012: VITAL SIGNS
 
Our 14th annual, juried, art-sci competition exhibition will be held at the New York Hall of Science, September 1, 2012 - February 3, 2013.
 
This year we are seeking original art inspired by our biological world with a special interest in what lies beneath its surface, and/or reflects upon scientific research questions, processes, ethics, and the stunning discoveries being made in biology and the biosciences today.
 
Previously, we only accepted original digital prints, but this year we also welcome giclee prints made from any original 2-d art, as well as digital still photos from video or animation, or digital photos of 3-d art if that image is compelling in its own right.
 
ART CO-JUROR:
Patricia Kernan, curator of the New York State Museum's illustration collection; and curator of the museum's international, biennial, "Focus on Nature" exhibits.
 
SCIENCE CO-JUROR:
Dr. Dana Boyd, microbiologist and Lecturer in the Department of Microbiology and Immunobiology at Harvard Medical School; long-time collaborator of Joe Davis, the "father" of bio-art.
 
Deadline: June 17, 2012
 
cheers,
