Science Art-Nature

 will present Windows on Evolution an Artistic Celebration of
 Charles Darwin
a virtual Science Art exhibit beginning February 12, 2013
      Here are some incentives to consider, if you would like to help make the art
      in this exhibit--and the science it portrays--accessible to anyone for free:


We're very sorry you're having difficulty with the video. Here's the script you would have heard:

We at Science Art-Nature believe that nothing communicates an idea more effectively than a picture. This February, we will use the visual arts to honor one of the most important ideas of the modern age, that natural selection drives evolution, with an on-line exhibition of innovative, relevant contemporary artwork.

WINDOWS ON EVOLUTION: A CELEBRATION OF CHARLES DARWIN will premier on Darwin's birthday, February 12th, 2013. This juried exhibition will be open to all living artists working in any medium, and will consist of the top images submitted. Cash awards will be given to the Grand Prize winner and to First and Second Place. Be a part of this exciting and important show. Check out the rewards below to see which ones best suit you. Click the link above to submit your own work, and check back on Darwin Day, 2013 for the premier of WINDOWS ON EVOLUTION: A CELEBRATION OF CHARLES DARWIN.


We hope you find something in the list of five incentives (below) that appeals to you...
or will appeal to your best friend... or to a colleague...or to someone you know who will be inspired by the art or the science (or both!).

Pledges for these incentives will help defray both the cost of bringing this art to everyone visiting the online exhibit, and the cost of encouraging other organizations and institutions to produce virtual Science Art exhibis.
