Fluid Bodies: from the Celestial to the Subatomic

The installations and performances of Evelina Domnitch and Dmitry Gelfand explore exotic fluid phenomena. Pushing the very thresholds of observability, their artworks raise questions as to what can and cannot be ultimately perceived – and comprehended about physical reality. Gelfand will discuss the duo’s 20-year artistic practice, culminating in a recent collaboration with the 2017 Nobel Prize winner, LIGO (Laser Interferometer Gravitational Wave Observatory).

In his recent research, Theodosiou has tried to find a relation between the astronomical eras and the symbols in the art of the ancient Greco-Roman period. He proposes, in his scientific published papers, that Moschophoros and Kriophoros statues correspond to the astronomical eras of Taurus and Aries and that exists a “secret” relationship between science and ancient art. Also, it is obvious that Modern Astrophysics theoretically accepts the existence of a super sensory universal space. A fact that even the artists, as Salvator Dali, have realized. The paintings of Dali show and certify the relationship of Astrophysics and modern art.
