CU Boulder opens exhibit exploring relationship between science, art

A new exhibit at the University of Colorado illustrates how art and science can be intertwined. The exhibit opened Friday and was organized by faculty, staff and students through CU’s Nature, Environment, Science and Technology Studio for the Arts. The exhibit and the broader studio program are funded by a Grand Challenge grant, which originated during the Obama administration.

The exhibit fills a wing of the newly opened Center for Academic Success and Engagement, and the pieces take many forms — glass plates, sculptures, drawings, virtual reality.
