02.11.11 - The Next Dimension: Holograms from the Institute for Optical Sciences
On November 8, the Institute for Optical Sciences will host an opening reception for The Next Dimension: Holograms from the Institute for Optical Sciences.
Creating 3 dimensional holographic images on 2 dimensional surfaces requires a unique blend of technical expertise and aesthetic consideration. The 24 pieces featured in this exhibition have been produced by undergraduate students from the Holography for 3D Visualization course hosted by the Institute for Optical Sciences (IOS). These 24 pieces also comprise the largest holography collection currently on display in Canada. As the final product of a highly collaborative process between science and art students, these pieces embody the combined experience of individuals with widely varying interests to create visually stunning and technically sophisticated works of art.
Opening Reception: November 8, 2011, 5-7PM
Location: University of Toronto Art Centre, Art Lounge, 15 King’s College Circle, Toronto
Exhibit duration: November 8 to December 2
Daniels Professor David Lieberman has worked with Emanuel Istrate, Ph.D.Academic Program Coordinator Institute for Optical Sciences at the University of Toronto, to facilitate research initiatives for both thesis students and independent studies students testing of optics for glass and glazing and in the development of holographic images.
