NANOART Competition

I was invited by Cris Orfescu to participate in this contest and thought it was an interesting idea. From the site: “NanoArt is a new art form where micro/nanosculptures created by artists/scientists through chemical/physical processes and/or natural micro/nanostructures are visualized with powerful research tools like Scanning Electron Microscopes. The monochromatic electron microscope images are processed further to create a piece of art that can be showcased for a large audience to educate the public with creative images that are appealing and acceptable.” www.nanoart21.org
The contest is open to all artists. A high resolution image will be provided and the artist will have to alter it in any artistic way they choose. Artists can also create their own image as long as it visualizes micro or nano structures.
The first 10 winners will be exhibited on nanoart21.org site for one full year. These works will be for sale on nanoart21.org site. The artists are welcome to sell their works on other venues. However, if the sale is generated through nanoart21.org, the artist will receive 65% and nanoart21.org will retain 35% of the sale price. Additionally, Nanoart21.org will print and ship the artwork to customers.
