About Art in the Atrium
The Magnet Lab's Art in the Atrium series explores connections between science and art. Visitors to the lab's art shows experience the work of local and regional artists and have the opportunity to tour the lab, checking out world-unique, Florida-built magnet technology that's an art in itself.
Upcoming Show: Spare Part Art - December 3, 2010
Research magnets and their component parts are built slowly, carefully, and to exacting standards. For this show, worn-out magnet components, scrap metal and discarded electronics from throughout the building were collected over the course of a year, then distributed to local artists to rethink, repurpose and reimagine. See their pieces- and learn what the parts were originally for- at the December 3 opening of Spare Part Art. With pieces by, among others, Denise Bookwalter, Mark Miller, Anne Stagg, Mark Dickson, Donalee Pond-Koenig, Chad Eby, Leslie Puckett, Greer Dauphin, Cheryl Sattler, Johnny Hunt, Dennis Howland, Jitka Levacova-Manousakis, Terry Carley, Ramona Abernathy-Paine, Lolita Gomez, Karen Mack, Karen Swing, Barbara Psimas, Tadja Dragoo and Steve Jones.
