Скачать или смотреть Artistic Interpretations of the Cosmos

How has art contributed to the dissemination of cutting-edge astronomical knowledge? What role did the visual arts play in the Space Race in the East, the West, and the Global South? How is the cosmos interpreted in Afrofuturist artwork? Which artworks, according to their makers, were created under the guidance of extraterrestrials? These topics and more are addressed in a wide-ranging duo-presentation by the Wende’s chief curator Joes Segal and associate curator Emma Diffley.

This program functions as a sneak peek into the Wende Museum's Fall 2026 exhibition, Competing Cosmologies, and is musically introduced by pianist, arranger, composer, educator, and film coach Liz Kinnon, a native of Los Angeles, who has performed all over the world with numerous artists including Dizzy Gillespie, Andy Williams, Barbara Morrison, Sherwood Sledge, Kenia, Octavio Bailly, and Jackie Ryan.

This program took place on December 13, 2025.
