Nicola Parente to participate in Parallel Universes - The Art of Quantum Physics.
Parallel Universes showcases a collection of Houston’s best artists, through the exploration of the relationship between art and quantum physics.
Sixty artists collaborated to create an “Exquisite Corpse” integrating their individual art pieces into a whole work of art incorporating their ‘Parallel Universes.’
Sixty artists created sixty universes, while pursuing the connections between art and quantum physics, as reflected in the creation of their art and envisioned as a series of paintings and photography in inter-connecting parallel planes of existence.
The nature of another reality is often mysterious, known only by its effect on our own world as seen through art.
A total of 120 canvases will be exhibited at Winter Street Gallery. The artwork is available for sale, with 75% of the proceeds going to the artist and 25% of the sale proceeds supporting the Spacetaker Artist Resource Center.
Additionally, a set of limited edition prints will be made and sold to benefit the Houston Artist Field Guide, a new online project for Spacetaker.
Artists will also exhibit additional paintings at Winter Street Studios, which are available for sale.
