SUMMARY:Lecture at the University of Florida: Art-Science Practice: From Higgs boson to Native blossoms
DESCRIPTION:  \n\nXavier Cortada will deliver a lecture on his art-science practice at the University of Florida College of Fine Arts in Gainesville\, FL. \n\n\n\n\n9/6/2013\n\n\nWhen:\nFriday\, September 6th\, 2013\n4 to 5 PM\n\n\nWhere:\nCollege of Fine Arts\nUniversity of Florida\nFAB 103\nGainesville\, Florida  32611\nUnited States\n\n\nContact:\nAmy Vigilante\, Director\, University Galleries\, UF\namyv@arts.ufl.edu\n352.273.3041\n\n\n\n \nAbove:  Art@CMS — Cortada’s banners on permanent display at Point 5\, CERN’s Large Hadron Collider (Cessy\, France). \nAs Art-Science Practice: From the Higgs boson to Native Blossoms \n\nOn August 3rd\, 2013\, Xavier Cortada will deliver a lecture on his art-science practice at University of Florida in Gainesville\, FL.  Cortada often collaborates with scientists in his art-making: \nAt CERN\, Cortada worked with a physicist to develop a site-specific art installation capturing the five search strategies which the CMS experiment has used to discover a new Higgs-like particle.  The five giant banners hang at the location (100m below the ground) where the particle was discovered.He has also worked with a population geneticist on a project exploring our ancestral journeys out of Africa 60\,000 years ago\, with a molecular biologist to synthesize an actual DNA strand made from a sequence randomly generated by participants visiting his museum exhibit\, and with botanists in eco-art projects to reforest mangroves\, native treesand wildflowers.\nCortada is currently working with scientists at Hubbard Brook LTER on an water cycle visualization project driven by real-time data collected at a watershed in New Hamphire’s White Mountains.\nCortada serves as Artist-in-Residence at the Florida International University College of Architecture + The Arts. \nFor further information: \nAmy Vigilante\, PhD \nDirector \nUniversity Galleries \nUF Public Art \nSchool of Art+Art History \nCollege of Fine Arts \nUniversity of Florida \nPO Box 115803 \nGainesville\, Florida 32611 \n352.273.3041 \nwww.arts.ufl.edu/galleries
