  Science Art-Nature and the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
 
present the
 
SCIENCE WITHOUT BORDERS ONLINE ART EXHIBITION
 
A Virtual Science Art Exhibition
 
in conjunction with the annual meeting of the
 
American Association for the Advancement of Science
 
Washington, D.C.
 
February 17 - 21, 2011
   
 

ELIGIBILITY: The exhibition is open to any living artist. The work must be original and submitted as a digital image. Since the exhibition is on-line, works in any size or medium will be considered. The objective is to present a wide range of scientifically-relevant artwork, in a wide range of artistic approaches and scientific disciplines.

Each work must correspond with a topic from the AAAS meeting (Topics)and be accompanied by a 100-word caption that provides viewers with a science lens—an explanation of the science portrayed—that will help them understand why the image is associated with the Topic.(Examples)
   

Science Art-Nature will assign a specialist in your field to assist you with this caption, should you desire.

 

LIMIT: There is no limit to the number of entries an artist may submit.

 

FEES: There will be a $20.00US donation for the first entry, $15.00 for each additional entry.
