Gary A. Bibb, in collaboration with Cecil Touchon, conceived an exciting new exhibition project for the Fluxmuseum. Utilizing the Face In Space Program from NASA - they organized a "Fluxface in Space" exhibition to be launched into orbit on the last two Space Shuttles! These final missions will include a rendezvous with the International Space Station.

127 artists from 26 nations created an original postcard sized work of art, in various media, interpreting the themes of Space Exploration & the Arts, the Shuttle Program, Outer Space, Rockets, Astronauts, Astronomy etc. This will be a commemorative project around the fact that the Space Shuttle program is coming to an end after these last two flights.

An additional exhibition website is online here -

We are no longer accepting artwork for this project. The deadline was Aug. 1, 2010.

This is so much more grand than just being associated in a small way with NASA and the Space Shuttle - they are merely the vehicle through which we are able to realize the concept. Granted, we are commemorating the space program for all the technological contributions we now employ - computers, satellite communication (including the internet and many mediums artists currently use) but beyond that, we recognize that space exploration is another expression of mankind's quest to satisfy the desire to understand the unknown. Look at all the scientific discoveries that have been made during the past 50 years. The Hubble telescope alone has revealed some of the wonders of our universe that we never would have known otherwise - and if an artist isn't stirred and inspired by those photos, well, I have some reservations about whether they truly are an artist.

With each new step into space we answer old questions and raise many new ones - much like the discoveries artists make about themselves and their world through art.
