Video: Visiting Artist Tomás Saraceno’s In Orbit

Posted on July 10, 2013 by Anya Ventura

Check out our Inaugural Visiting Artist Tomás Saraceno’s newest installation, a netted web that extends 65 feet into the air, in Germany’s K21 Staendehaus Museum.

 

For more information on the ideas that drive Saraceno’s work, read about his far-ranging conversations with MIT scientists and engineers on biomimicry, atmosphere, and cosmology.
