On April 11, 2001, MIT artist, inventor, and engineer Arthur Ganson returned to the Exploratorium to create another fluttering, shaking, falling, exploding, chain-reaction event!
As part of our 2nd Wednesdays art series, the museum floor was lined with mechanisms designed to create one long series of physical events. View the webcast to watch complex mechanisms slide, roll, burn, pour, push, pull, bump, and grind, passing energy from one object to another to create a theatrical play about movement and physical reality. Ganson has exhibited his delightfully quirky works at MIT; Dartmouth College; Montgomery Museum of Fine Arts; Technorama in Winterthur, Switzerland; and Harvard University. He has pieces in the permanent collections of New England Biolabs Foundation, The Edelston/Boardroom Collection, DeCordova Museum and Sculpture Park, and in numerous private collections. Smithsonian magazine, A Guide to Public Art in Greater Boston, and Leonardo have all written about him, and he has been an artist in residence at MIT, Liberty Science Center, Northeastern University, and—thanks to the Osher Fellowship Program—was here at the Exploratorium.
