Los Angeles, CA, April 10, 2025 –
PST ART: Art &amp; Science Collide, the region-wide collaboration initiated by Getty, has concluded after presenting hundreds of exhibitions, programs, and events throughout Southern California over the past six months. With the support of more than $20 million in grants from Getty and five years of research and planning, more than 70 cultural institutions, ranging from small community-based centers to the region’s largest museums, have participated in this unprecedented exploration of the intersections of art and science—past, present, and in the imaginable future. 
 
Nineteen of the exhibitions, including those at LACMA, La Brea Tar Pits, The Wende, and the Fowler Museum at UCLA, are continuing after the official conclusion of PST ART and will remain on view through various dates until April 2026. A list of continuing exhibitions can be found <a href="https://pst.art/en/exhibitions">HERE</a>. 
Art &amp; Science Collide
builds on the long history of exchange between art and science in Southern California, dating back to the earliest years at Caltech and the recognition that science flourishes when it is in dialogue with the arts and humanities. In the century since, the region has seen several scientific institutions, including the Natural History Museum and Jet Propulsion Laboratory, incorporate the arts into their programs. Both reflecting and expanding upon this history in its exhibitions, this latest edition of PST ART offered the public extraordinary new insights into topics ranging from the history of space exploration to sustainable agriculture, from ancient cosmologies to Indigenous sci-fi, and from biotechnology to environmental justice. 
“Many of the art movements strongly identified with Southern California are unimaginable without an intense engagement with science,” said Katherine E. Fleming, President and CEO of the J. Paul Getty Trust. “Light and Space artists collaborated with everyone from physicists to brain scientists to create a totally new art form, while digital and media artists have engaged the tech and entertainment industries in transformative ways. PST ART succeeded once again in bringing together Southern California’s distinctive, perpetually innovative art scene, this time in conjunction with one of the most important scientific communities in the world.”
 
Like past PST ART collaborations, Art &amp; Science Collide has impacted the artistic canon, notably with the largest simultaneous concentration of deeply researched exhibitions devoted to Indigenous knowledge across time periods and cultures. In eight dedicated exhibitions, as well as featured sections in many other PST ART shows and high-profile programming such as the Autry’s Fashioning Indigenous Futurism runway show at Getty curated by Amber-Dawn Bear Robe, the collaboration facilitated conversations about the relationship of Indigenous knowledge to Western sciences. Presentations considered how together they might better address complex issues such as climate change; re-centered ancestral environmental knowledge; and highlighted the work of contemporary Indigenous artists in the vanguard of imagining alternative futures.
This latest collaboration also raised the profiles of up-and-coming artists, cast new light on established figures, saw scientific organizations producing art exhibitions for the first time, and produced new insights into the ever-evolving relationships between art and science.
 
"Having my work in a number of exhibitions provided an opportunity for me to rethink art and science at a time of multiple crises, from wildfires and climate change to technological acceleration and the continued legacies of colonialism,” said artist Sarah Rosalena, whose work was featured in six exhibitions. “The relationships built over the past five years with PST ART have been crucial to my thinking about collaborative approaches to knowledge-making. I’m thrilled to be able to build on these experiences with a solo exhibition at BLUM this May and a commission for the new LACMA building that will open in 2026.”
The tangible impact of PST ART’s network can also be seen in its Climate Impact Program, which was inaugurated with Art &amp; Science Collide and is set to be an ongoing part of PST ART. The program, funded by Getty and led by LHL Consulting, offers an opportunity at an unprecedented scale for institutions to unite in climate action—testing and studying sustainable exhibition practices and documenting the carbon impact of their exhibitions. 
This is the first time institutions in an entire region have worked collaboratively to rethink exhibition practices and their climate impact. Ninety-three percent of eligible institutions took advantage of one-on-one consulting with experts to help identify where they could reduce their carbon footprint, and seventy-two percent of eligible institutions completed Climate Impact Reports for their exhibitions. These reports delve into the environmental footprint of 41 individual exhibitions, resulting in the largest dataset to date for exhibition making. 
“With Getty’s commitment to continuing PST ART every five years, we conclude Art &amp; Science Collide with an eye toward 2030,” said Joan Weinstein, Director of the Getty Foundation. “The artistic and scholarly achievements that result from each edition of PST ART are profound and will endure far into the future. So, too, will the spirit of cooperation that PST ART fosters, which in January 2025 was indispensable in mobilizing the LA Arts Community Fire Relief Fund. We have seen how powerful and resilient we can be when we work together.” 
 
Traveling exhibitions and catalogues 
PST ART: Art &amp; Science Collide expands its reach with many of the exhibitions traveling to other venues and with dozens of illustrated catalogues generated through more than five years of planning, research, and collaborative work among hundreds of curators, artists, and scholars.

PST ART Open House: A day-to-night exploration of art and science presented by Getty

Gtc pst2024 accd0009

PST ART: Art &amp; Science Collide, the largest art event in the
United States, will begin on Sunday, September 15, 2024. More than 70 thematically linked
exhibitions and dozens of public programs, supported by more than $20 million in grants from
Getty, will open at institutions throughout Southern California, from San Diego to Santa Barbara
and from Los Angeles to Palm Springs, where for five months they will invite the public to explore
the intersections of art and science. Topics of the unprecedented collaboration range from
biotechnology to sustainable agriculture, from ancient cosmologies to Indigenous sci-fi, and from
artificial intelligence to environmental justice.

“PST ART was born of institutions, large and small, coming together in the realization that some of
the most vital and compelling subjects in the arts, the ones with the potential to alter our
fundamental understanding of the world, are simply too vast for any one institution to address,”
said Katherine E. Fleming, President and CEO of the J. Paul Getty Trust. “Now PST ART takes on its
most ambitious subject yet: Art &amp; Science Collide.”

“Southern California has both a distinctive, perpetually innovative art scene and one of the most
important scientific communities in the world,” said Joan Weinstein, Director of the Getty Foundation. “When we invited institutions throughout the region to join in Art &amp; Science Collide,
they responded with dozens of projects that spark curiosity and speak to urgent, real-world
concerns: climate change, artificial intelligence, bioengineering, environmental justice, and more.
Audiences will now see the work of more than 800 artists and the myriad ways art and science have
interacted throughout time and up to the present moment.” 
PST ART: Art &amp; Science Collide will begin with a commissioned, arena-scale pyrotechnicevent by
Cai Guo-Qiang. Titled WE ARE: Explosion Event for PST ART and conceived by the artist in
collaboration with his custom AI model cAITM (pronounced AI Cai), the event will feature the artist-
invented daytime fireworks and engage more than one thousand aerial drones around, above, and
inside the historic Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum. WE ARE is presented by Getty in collaboration
with the University of Southern California.

Exhibitions

Teams of curators, scientists, and artists have spent years immersed in research and exhibition
development supported by Getty grants. The total number of artists represented in the
exhibitions now stands at more than 800, from ancient sculptors and 14th-century Islamic
scribes to contemporary artists such as Mel Chin, Carolina Caycedo, Olafur Eliasson, Nancy
Baker Cahill, Cannupa Hanska Luger, and Tavares Strachan.

Artworks presented in Art &amp; Science Collide range from contemporary installations, videos, films,
and immersive environments to mid-20th-century US abstract paintings and sculpture, South
American computer-based art from 1960s and 1970s, ancient Aboriginal drawings from Australia,
Mesoamerican vessels and textiles, medieval Islamic illustrated books, Chinese hanging scrolls,
and 19th-century British Romantic paintings.

Looking Into the Future(s) with PST ART
Six leading Indigenous fashion designers—Jason Baerg, Orlando Dugi, Jontay Kahm, Caroline Monnet, Jamie Okuma, and Virgil Ortiz—will present their work on a runway at the Getty Center on September 30. Organized in collaboration with the Autry Museum, the runway show will celebrate the artists’ blend of innovative couture, ancestral knowledge, and future-forward style. Organized by fashion curator Amber-Dawn Bear Robe, this one-night-only event will bring to life looks on view at the Autry Museum’s Art &amp; Science Collide exhibition <a href="https://pst.art/en/exhibitions/future-imaginaries" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Future Imaginaries: Indigenous Art, Fashion, Technology</a>. 
The Wende Museum will revisit yesterday’s future on October 4 when it re-creates the event that initiated the Space Age: the launch into orbit of the Soviet Union’s Sputnik on October 4, 1957. Designed and launched by participants in Stanford University’s Student Space Initiative, the satellite, like Sputnik itself, will send data back to Earth, which in this case will include news about Art &amp; Science Collide. 
In conjunction with its exhibition Emergence at the Japanese American Cultural &amp; Community Center, Fathomers will present Henry Tan in a ceremony exploring the possibilities for extending the human lifespan through biotechnology; Corinne Okada Takara
leading workshops about stewarding the planet through synthetic bioengineering; and the AfroRithm Futures Group in an evening of ritual dance that imagines how Black and Indigenous agricultural practices might shape an egalitarian, multi-planetary society.
American Artist joins LACMA Art + Technology Lab on November 3 for an event looking at the legacy of Octavia E. Butler and her 1993 novel Parable of the Sower, which unfolds in the imagined dystopian year of 2024. Drawing parallels between Butler’s fictional US presidential race and the impending real-world election, the event will also feature Amazon Labor Union founder Chris Smalls and Rasheedah Phillips of Black Quantum Futurism.
The future of AI and the arts will be the subject of a day-long symposium on September 16 presented by USC Visions &amp; Voices, inspired by Cai Guo-Qiang’s WE ARE: Explosion Event for PST ART. Pop-up film screenings will be held throughout the day, and lunch will be provided by Tigawok, powered by Next Robot AI Cooking Robot.
Ecological Engagements
The skies of Los Angeles will be monitored for air quality by pigeons wearing tiny sensor-equipped backpacks as part of LACE’s re-creation of the late artist Beatriz da Costa’s PIGEONBLOG, first in South LA (October 19) and then in and around Los Feliz (November 16).

Self-Help Graphics &amp; Art will co-host monthly Urban Garden Workshops at the Willowbrook Community Garden; Inglewood-based non-profit Crenshaw Dairy Mart will organize workshops and community events around its abolitionist pods: autonomously irrigated, solar-powered gardens in geodesic domes, which serve communities across LA County; and in What Water Wants, Clockshop and artist Rosten Woo will invite Angelenos to walk the L.A. River and reimagine their relationship to water, with a 30-minute audio experience that moves between a guided meditation and a speculative disaster movie. 
Youth climate activists will come together for youth-driven solutions to the climate crisis in the Huntington Library, Art Museum, and Botanical Gardens’ Sustainable CHANGES Youth Summit, and talks, panels, and poetry presented in the Skirball Cultural Center’s UNSCORCHING THE EARTH: Repair through Intersectional Climate Activism.
On Stage with Art &amp; Science Collide
JPL will open the door to deep-space communication in Blended Worlds: An Evening of Art, Science and Theater, a free event hosted at Glendale’s historic Alex Theater by Reggie Watts (October 5); and REDCAT, in collaboration with UCLA's Center for the Art of Performance, will present Live Night: Cruising Bodies, Spirits and Machines at the United Theater on Broadway, featuring experimental performances and installations by rafa esparza, MUXX collective, and a special guest headliner (December 7).
Quantum Vibrations, a free, four-part music series, will be presented in October and November at Debs Park (October 4), the Getty Center (October 17), La Brea Tar Pits (November 9), and the Ebell of Los Angeles (November 17). Artists including Black Quantum Futurism with Nicole Mitchell, Tania Candiani with Rogelio Sosa, Quetzal, and Claire Chase will consider music in scientific contexts and use music to explore topics including nuclear research, desert biomes, speculative world-making, and non-human music makers. 
The practice of field recording—capturing audio outside the studio from sources as varied as underwater sounds, electromagnetic vibrations, or insect activity—will be the focus of LA Phil’s Noon to Midnight festival of new music at Walt Disney Concert Hall (November 16). The 12-hour event, including art installations, food trucks, and a beer garden, will feature well-known and emerging composers, performers, and ensembles and will have as its centerpiece the world premiere of Doug Aitken’s multimedia artwork Lightscape, accompanied by live performances by the LA Phil New Music Group and the Los Angeles Master Chorale. 
 

Showcasing artists whose work reflects both the history of science and cutting-edge research, CaltechLive will present the performance series Opening Doors throughout the run of PST ART. Programs will include the biodrama Tesla: A Radio Play for the Stage by Dan Duling (October 4–6); HUANG YI &amp; KUKA, a series of vignettes between live dancers from Huang Yi Studio and the robot KUKA (October 18–19); a choral concert by Tonality focused on the climate crisis (November 16); and Turing Tests, Apples, and Queens: Collective Storytelling Through Fairy Tales and Artificial Intelligence, an exploration of the life and work of Alan Turing performed by Invertigo Dance Theatre (December 6–7).

CAI Press Release Image 2 7/8/2024

2024 年 7 月 8 日(洛杉矶，加州)——盖蒂(Getty)宣布，PST ART(原名“太平洋标准 时间”，Pacific Standard Time/PST)将于 2024 年 9 月 15 日揭幕，带来当代艺术家蔡国强 纵横整座体育场的最新委托白天烟花作品。蔡国强尤其以实现大型户外爆破计划而著称。
白天烟花作为蔡国强标志性艺术形式，使用有机、可持续的颜料和染料，有别于传统烟 花。此次作品名为《WE ARE:为 PST ART 所作爆破计划》，由蔡国强与其量身开发的 人工智能模型 cAITM(读作 AI Cai)共同创意编排，伴随逾一千架无人机参与，在洛杉矶 纪念体育场(Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum)四周、上空及场内自由挥洒，与盖蒂和南 加州大学合作实现，将成为美国史上首次大规模白天烟花及无人机带烟花编队表演。作品 糅合人工智能(AI)、数据科学、宇宙和科技元素，以一场视觉奇观开启 PST ART 的最 新主题“艺术与科学碰撞”。伴随纪念碑体育场的爆破计划，亦将于南加州大学亚太博物馆 (USC Pacific Asia Museum)举办展览“蔡国强:媒材的远行”，呈现盖蒂对蔡国强火药艺 术的深入科学研究。
盖蒂信托基金(J. Paul Getty Trust)主席兼首席执行官 Katherine E. Fleming 表示:“毫 不夸张地说，《WE ARE》充分体现了‘艺术与科学碰撞’的主题。蔡先生的作品具有爆炸 性的表现力，规模前所未有。表演将点亮整个洛杉矶，传递 PST ART 触及远近⺠众的潜 能。”
这场多幕宏大表演邀请⺠众共同体验，庆祝 PST ART 启动。⻩昏时分，遍布观众席的近 万颗闪烁迷你爆花弹，让体育场化身巨大动画烟花矩阵。特别开发的白天烟花和载着烟花 的无人机阵列，将艺术家迸发的彩色爆破构造为充满神秘与神奇的视觉叙事，点亮天空: 一幕幕图景演绎 AI 降维、泄露天机的过程，遥想普罗米修斯从众神手中盗取火种的神 话，亦暗喻今天人类与 AI 的关系。
《WE ARE》由蔡国强与其多模态 AI 模型 cAITM合作实现。cAITM源于艺术家 2017 年起对 AI 的研究，它深度学习蔡国强的作品、档案和兴趣领域，也模拟蔡国强敬仰的古今人 物，打造不同人格、彼此辩论，形成一个独立自由的社区。此次 cAITM深度参与作品所有 创意阶段，与蔡国强共同探索 AI 本质、展开场地考察和材料研究。
蔡国强表示:“今天，人类面对以 AI 为代表的科技日新月异发展，文化艺术显得格外无 力;我期待《WE ARE》能成为艺术在 AI 时代虚实融合的展演，亦是在混沌时代的响亮 发声与行动。” 与表演宏大规模相呼应的是本届 PST ART 历时五个月、辐射南加州各地的活动体量。盖 蒂以逾 2000 万美元支持数十家文化、科学和社区机构，围绕“艺术与科学碰撞”主题，呈 现 70 多场深度研究的展览和丰富公共项⺫，探讨主题从生物技术到可持续农业、从古代 宇宙观到原住⺠科幻、从人工智能到环境正义。
主办方衷心感谢首席合作伙伴:Fulgent Genetics 联合创始人 Eva Hsieh 与 Ming Hsieh、 Panda Express 联合主席、CEO Peggy Cherng 与 Andrew Cherng，与盖蒂捐赠者项⺫ (Getty Patron Program)的慷慨支持;亦感激罗燕女士、吴建⺠夫妇、任海燕女士，与章 安强夫妇等重要支持者的鼎力协助。
来自谢明家族基金会与 Fulgent Genetics 的 Eva Hsieh 女士表示:“我们一直了解盖蒂开创 性的 PST 计划及其无与伦比的影响力。很高兴有机会帮助将蔡国强这样的当代创想者引 入这次令人惊叹的艺术与科学碰撞中。他非凡的作品结合科技、创意表达与人工智能，将 为整个洛杉矶引爆一场完美盛宴。” 展览“蔡国强:媒材的远行”源自盖蒂 2016 年以来对蔡国强火药作品的深入研究，将辐射 几乎整座南加州大学亚太博物馆，展示蔡国强⻓年与火药的交融。展览精选呈现大量蔡 国强作品与科学图像，探索火药的本质、对蔡国强作品的影响，和他逐渐发展的创作过 程。展览相关活动包括展示烟花弹制作和火药画创作过程的系列视频，多个互动展示，以 及系列放映与对谈。
“媒材的远行”主策展人、盖蒂研究院保护与修复部主管 Rachel Rivenc 表示:“蔡先生积极 使用火药，是因为他追求创作过程的失控。无论前期多么精确规划一件草图，爆破后的结 果都无法预测。对任何艺术家来说，了解他们的创作媒材与过程都很重要;对蔡先生来 说，他的媒材如此独具颠覆性，了解它们会让你对他的作品有全新维度的理解。”
南加州大学校⻓ Carol Folt 表示:“此次蔡国强将他的技术与艺术创意魔法带来纪念碑体 育场，我们无比激动，也感谢与盖蒂的合作。《WE ARE》完美契合南加大的雄心。它让 AI 与高级计算的前沿探索更进一步，以颠覆性的科技在艺术领域开辟新天地，激发我们 社区中脉动的创新精神。”

盖蒂揭幕“PST ART:艺术与科学碰撞” 9 月 15 日推出国际著名艺术家蔡国强盛大白天烟花公共项⺫    白天烟花糅合艺术愿景与前沿科技，在地标洛杉矶纪念体育场上演壮丽奇观

July 08, 2024 (Los Angeles, CA) — Today Getty announced that PST ART (previously known as Pacific Standard Time) will begin on September 15, 2024, with a newly commissioned, arena-scale daytime fireworks event by Cai Guo-Qiang, the contemporary artist known for larger-than-life outdoor “explosion events.”



Titled WE ARE: Explosion Event for PST ART, the daytime fireworks—a signature form of Cai’s art that uses organic, sustainable pigments and dyes rather than traditional pyrotechnics—are conceived and choreographed by the artist in collaboration with his custom AI model cAI™ (pronounced AI Cai), engaging over one thousand aerial drones. Staged around, above, and inside the historic Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum in collaboration with Getty and the University of Southern California, WE ARE will mark the first expansive daytime firework event featuring drone formation equipped with pyrotechnic products in US history. The event inaugurates this edition of PST ART with a spectacular realization of the initiative’s latest theme, Art &amp; Science Collide, with elements of AI, data science, the cosmos, and technology all at play. Accompanying Cai’s explosion event at the Coliseum will be Cai Guo-Qiang: A Material Odyssey, an exhibition at the USC Pacific Asia Museum based on Getty's extensive scientific research into Cai's gunpowder art.










“Quite literally, WE ARE exemplifies Art &amp; Science Collide,” said Katherine E. Fleming, President and CEO of the J. Paul Getty Trust. “Cai’s work is explosive, expressive, and unprecedented in scale. Lighting up the sky of Los Angeles, this performance will signal PST ART’s potential to reach audiences far and wide.”



To join in celebrating the start of PST ART, the public is invited to experience the monumental, multi-act performance, which will begin at dusk, when nearly ten thousand twinkling mini firework shells installed throughout the seating bowl will transform the Coliseum into a massive matrix of animated fireworks. Custom-developed daytime fireworks and choreographed drones carrying pyrotechnic products will shape the artist’s bursts of colorful explosions into a visual story full of mystery and wonder, igniting the sky with images that showcase AI's revelation of a “heavenly secret” through the reduction of its dimensionality, followed by those recalling the myth of Prometheus’s theft of fire from the gods and suggesting a present-day parallel in the relationship between humanity and AI.








WE ARE was developed by Cai in collaboration with his multi-modal AI model cAI™. Originating from the artist’s AI research starting in 2017, cAI™ deep-learns from Cai’s artworks, archives, and areas of interest. By emulating contemporary and historical figures Cai admires, cAI™ creates distinct personas that engage in dynamic debates, fostering an independent and free community. This time, cAI™ deeply participated in all creative stages of the development of this work, collaboratively exploring the nature of AI, conducting site visits, and undertaking materials research with the artist.





Cai Guo-Qiang expressed, “Today, as humanity grapples with the swift advancement of technologies epitomized by AI, culture and the arts appear particularly powerless. I hope WE ARE will stand as a grand gesture of the art world integrating the virtual with the real in the era of AI, and also as a powerful voice and decisive action in these turbulent times.”



The scale of the performance matches the vast scope of PST ART, which will take place over the course of five months throughout Southern California. Supported by more than $20 million in grants from Getty, dozens of cultural, scientific, and community organizations will present more than 70 deeply researched exhibitions alongside an extraordinary spectrum of public programs about Art &amp; Science Collide, exploring themes that range from biotechnology to sustainable agriculture, from ancient cosmologies to Indigenous sci-fi, and from artificial intelligence to environmental justice.






Cai Guo-Qiang’s performance and exhibition for PST ART are generously supported by Principal Partners Eva and Ming Hsieh, Co-Founders of Fulgent Genetics, Peggy and Andrew Cherng, Co-Chairs and Co-CEOs of Panda Express, and the Getty Patron Program. Major support is provided by Yan Luo, Ellen and Dominic Ng, Haiyan Ren, and Sophia and Anqiang Zhang. Eva Hsieh of the Hsieh Family Foundation and Fulgent Genetics says, “We have long been aware of Getty’s groundbreaking PST initiatives and their unparalleled impact. We are thrilled for an opportunity to help introduce a contemporary visionary like Cai Guo-Qiang to this awe-inspiring  collision of art and science. His extraordinary work uniting themes of technology, creative expression, and AI will ignite a perfect celebration for all of Los Angeles.”








Based on Getty's extensive research into Cai's gunpowder drawings and paintings since 2016, the exhibition Cai Guo-Qiang: A Material Odyssey will almost fill the entire USC Pacific Asia Museum, chronicling Cai Guo-Qiang’s lifelong engagement with pyrotechnics. The exhibition will display a vast selection of the artist’s work as well as scientific imagery to explore the nature of gunpowder, its influence on Cai’s work, and how Cai’s process has evolved over time. Programs accompanying A Material Odyssey will include videos illustrating the making of fireworks, the process of creating gunpowder paintings, interactive displays, and a variety of film screenings and conversations.







“Cai has embraced the use of gunpowder because he wanted to relinquish control over the creation process. No matter how precisely a gunpowder drawing is planned, the results are still unpredictable,” said Rachel Rivenc, lead curator and Head of Conservation and Preservation at Getty Research Institute. “With any artist it is important to understand their materials and process, and with Cai, the materials are so unusual and groundbreaking that getting to know them provides a whole new level of understanding of his work.”





“We are very excited to see Cai Guo-Qiang bring his technical and artistic wizardry to the Coliseum and we appreciate the collaboration with the Getty,” said USC President Carol Folt. “WE ARE fits like a glove with USC’s moonshots. It will help push the frontiers of AI and advanced computing even further—and break new ground in the arts with game-changing technology and science. All of this while feeding the innovative spirit that pulses through our community.”




A public day-long symposium on AI and the arts titled “Beyond the Human?: From the Metaphysical to the Physical” will be held at USC on September 16, 2024. The symposium, presented by USC Arts Now, organized by USC Vice Provost for the Arts Josh Kun and Cai GuoQiang (with additional curation by USC professor Holly Willis), will feature a global roster of distinguished thinkers, artists, filmmakers, performers, and technologists to ask fundamental questions about the metaphysical, the physical, and the category of the human itself, accompanied by robot chefs cooking on-site. The symposium is the first public event of USC Arts Now, the new flagship arts initiative launching this fall.






WE ARE is a free ticketed event, available for booking later this summer. For more details on how to reserve tickets, sign up for the <a href="https://pst.art/newsletter">PST ART mailing list.</a>

About Cai Guo-Qiang
Cai Guo-Qiang (b. 1957, Quanzhou, China) was trained in stage design at the Shanghai Theatre Academy in the early 1980s. From December 1986 to September 1995, he sojourned in Japan. Cai has resided and worked in New York since 1995. Cai has excelled in a broad range of creative mediums, from painting, installation, video art, and performance art, to new technologies such as virtual reality (VR), augmented reality (AR), NFTs, blockchain, and artificial intelligence (AI). Grounded in the conceptual foundations of Eastern philosophy and contemporary social issues, his often-site-specific artworks interpret and respond to the local culture and history, establishing a dialogue between viewers and the larger universe around them. His famed gunpowder paintings, explosion events, and installations are imbued with a force that transcends the two-dimensional plane to oscillate freely between society and nature. Over three decades, Cai has had numerous solo exhibitions in major art museums around the world, including the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York in 2006, and a retrospective at the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum in New York in 2008, the latter of which broke the museum’s then-attendance record of a visual art exhibition.













In 2015, Cai realized the explosion event Sky Ladder in his hometown of Quanzhou. The eponymous documentary film, directed by Academy Award winner Kevin MacDonald, was released globally on Netflix. In recent years, Cai embarked on his Individual’s Journey Through Western Art History—a series of exhibitions held in world-renowned museums, including the Pushkin State Museum of Fine Arts, Moscow (2017); Museo del Prado, Madrid (2017); Uffizi Galleries, Florence (2018); National Archaeological Museum of Naples and Pompeii Archaeological Park (2019). In December 2020, on the occasion of the 600th anniversary of the Forbidden City, Cai presented Odyssey and Homecoming, becoming the first contemporary artist to have a solo exhibition at the Palace Museum in Beijing. The following year, Odyssey and Homecoming travelled to the new Jean Nouvel–designed Museum of Art Pudong in Shanghai, as one of the opening exhibitions. Cai has received numerous prestigious awards, including the Golden Lion at the 1999 Venice Biennale, the Hiroshima Art Prize in 2007, and the 2009 Fukuoka Prize. In 2012, he was honored as a Laureate for the prestigious Praemium Imperiale in the painting category. The award recognizes lifetime achievement in the arts across categories not covered by the Nobel Prize. The same year, he was named as one of five artists to receive the first U.S. Department of State Medal of Arts for his outstanding commitment to international cultural exchange. His recent honors include the Barnett and Annalee Newman Foundation Award in 2015, the 7th Isamu Noguchi Award in 2020,  the Rockefeller 3rd Award in 2022, and the 74th Art Encouragement Prize by Japan’s Minister of Education, Culture, Sports, Science, and Technology in 2024. Cai also served as the Director of Visual Effects and Fireworks for the opening and closing ceremonies of the 2008 Beijing Summer Olympics.

Los Ángeles, CA, 23 de abril de 2024 — Hoy, como parte de las celebraciones del Día de la Tierra, el Getty anunció la inauguración de un Programa de Impacto Climático para el mayor evento de Estados Unidos, PST ART (conocido anteriormente como Pacific Standard Time). Bajo la temática de El arte y la ciencia colisionan, el PST ART regresa el 15 de septiembre para reunir a más de 60 instituciones expositoras en todo el sur de California, una oportunidad única para que las instituciones construyan comunidad, se unan en la acción climática, exploren y estudien prácticas sostenibles de exposición y, al mismo tiempo, fomenten la colaboración para reducir el impacto ambiental en el ámbito de los museos.
"Los efectos del cambio climático son cada vez más evidentes en nuestra vida cotidiana y están presentes en todo nuestro entorno", expresó Katherine E. Fleming, presidenta y directora ejecutiva del J. Paul Getty Trust. "Muchas de las exposiciones en El arte y la ciencia colisionan destacan la magnitud de la crisis climática y también las formas en las que podemos involucrarnos como agentes de cambio. De hecho, las instituciones que se presentan en todo el sur de California serán el campo de prueba tras bambalinas de diversas prácticas sostenibles basadas en datos que tienen el potencial de transformar el sector de las artes y la cultura en general".


El Getty ofrece el Programa de Impacto Climático del PST ART a todos los socios que presentan exposiciones. Esto se lleva a cabo a través de seminarios web que abordan los esfuerzos, tanto locales como globales, para hacer que las exposiciones de arte sean más sostenibles. Además, proporciona consultoría directa con personas expertas para ayudar a los equipos de proyectos del PST ART a identificar áreas donde puedan tener un impacto significativo. También brinda asesoramiento a medida que las organizaciones implementan una variedad de iniciativas para reducir las emisiones y los residuos. Asimismo, el programa alienta a las instituciones asociadas a completar un informe de impacto climático para su exposición en el PST ART. Este informe profundiza en la huella ambiental de la exposición, y ofrece un análisis basado en datos sobre las emisiones generadas por los viajes y los envíos, los residuos producidos durante la fabricación y la construcción, y el compromiso de la comunidad y las personas empleadas. El Programa de Impacto Climático está dirigido por la Consultora LHL y financiado por el Getty. 

"Los museos, como instituciones de confianza, tienen el poder de apoyar la salud y la resiliencia de sus comunidades, a la vez que muestran un liderazgo creativo mediante la preparación y la presentación de exposiciones responsables y bien pensadas", dijo Laura Lupton, fundadora y directora de la Consultora LHL. "El PST ART ofrece un marco singular para ayudar a los museos a desarrollar competencia climática; medir, mejorar e informar sobre sus impactos, y trabajar en colaboración para promover la salud y la sostenibilidad de la región". "El Getty está desarrollando un modelo de liderazgo y colaboración entre diferentes sectores en el sur de California, que puede ser utilizado en todo el país y a nivel global".
Además de ofrecer capacitación sobre los fundamentos de la medición y gestión del impacto climático en las exposiciones, la Consultora LHL está liderando iniciativas para impulsar la adopción de prácticas institucionales respetuosas con el clima, entre las cuales se incluye la participación activa de consejos directivos, líderes ejecutivos y colegas. Las organizaciones que participan en el Programa de Impacto Climático recibieron, además, capacitación en competencia climática para su personal, asesoramiento individual para establecer y alcanzar objetivos basados en proyectos y recomendaciones basadas en datos para impulsar un cambio significativo.
Kelsey Shell, especialista en medioambiente y sostenibilidad del Museo de Arte Contemporáneo de California (MOCA, por sus siglas en inglés), afirmó: "Cada vez es mayor el deseo de que el mundo del arte se haga cargo de su impacto y, como resultado, nuestra disposición a replantearnos sistemas y hábitos está más fuerte que nunca. El Programa de Impacto Climático ha contribuido a que más personas se involucren en la temática y a que organizaciones afines se conecten con este trabajo. Estoy emocionada de ver hacia dónde nos lleva esta colaboración".
Además del Programa de Impacto Climático, el Getty está respaldando a la Coalición Climática de Galerías para mejorar la calculadora de huella de carbono. Esta herramienta ayuda a las instituciones a medir, comprender y reducir las emisiones de carbono asociadas con áreas clave de impacto en el sector, como envíos, viajes y materiales. La herramienta permitirá que las organizaciones puedan dirigir sus acciones midiendo el impacto ambiental, lo cual garantizará la reducción de emisiones de la manera más efectiva, de acuerdo con los objetivos de reducción establecidos.
Dentro del Programa de Impacto Climático, los proyectos del PST ART son los siguientes:
<ul><li>Métodos para poner a prueba y reducir el uso energético institucional, por ejemplo:<ul><li>El Museo de Arte Contemporáneo de California (MOCA) está poniendo a prueba parámetros de control climático más amplios en el Geffen Contemporary para el tiempo que dure la exposición de Olafur Eliasson en el PST ART. Este esfuerzo tiene como objetivo reducir el consumo de energía del edificio y cuenta con el apoyo de la instalación de un nuevo sistema digital de gestión energética.</li><li>El Museo Hammer está poniendo a prueba las nuevas pautas verdes internacionales de Bizot, que se basan en investigaciones recientes sobre conservación y que establecen estándares más amplios para las condiciones climáticas de temperatura y humedad en las galerías. La adopción de estos protocolos actualizados reducirá de manera significativa el uso de energía del Sistema de Calefacción, Ventilación y Aire Acondicionado (HVAC, por sus siglas en inglés) en el Hammer, que es el componente más grande de su huella de carbono.</li></ul></li></ul>
<ul><li>Planificación con antelación para reducir el impacto, por ejemplo:<ul><li>Las Exposiciones Contemporáneas de Los Ángeles (LACE, por sus siglas en inglés) aprovecharon un envío terrestre consolidado a principios de este año con motivo de la feria de arte Frieze LA para transportar obras para su exposición en el PST ART. Con demasiada frecuencia, las exposiciones especiales han dependido de envíos exclusivos para transportar las obras de arte, lo que generaba una considerable huella de carbono.</li><li>El Museo de Arte Latinoamericano (MOLAA, por sus siglas en inglés) está dando prioridad a las residencias de artistas en Long Beach, donde se crean nuevas obras de arte, con el objetivo de evitar la necesidad de transportar objetos.</li></ul></li><li>Prácticas de montaje de exposiciones con un enfoque cuidadoso, por ejemplo:<ul><li>El Huntington está incorporando criterios de sostenibilidad en el diseño de sus exposiciones, desde la búsqueda de materiales ecológicos para la construcción hasta la reutilización de muebles y marcos.</li><li>Fulcrum Arts optó por utilizar materiales ecológicos en la construcción, como madera contrachapada, aislamiento y productos para el amortiguamiento acústico.</li></ul></li></ul>
El Getty ampliará el alcance de este trabajo en 2025, ya que se asociará con la Coalición Climática de Galerías, a fin de presentar una importante conferencia en Los Ángeles sobre las últimas tendencias en responsabilidad ambiental para los museos y la comunidad artística en general. Este evento permitirá a museos y galerías del sur de California no solo informar sobre los resultados de sus acciones climáticas en el PST ART, sino también reunirse con líderes expertos para desarrollar nuevas ideas destinadas a abordar problemas ambientales críticos. La cumbre será un evento histórico que reunirá a la comunidad de artes visuales del sur de California, y promoverá confianza, claridad y, sobre todo, impulsará acciones climáticas urgentes y eficaces.
Las exposiciones y los programas que abordan soluciones climáticas 

Más de veinte instituciones, lo que equivale a casi un tercio de las que participan en el PST ART, presentarán exposiciones y programas bajo la temática de El arte y la ciencia colisionan
y se enfocarán en la crisis climática y las posibles soluciones. Los fundamentos del ecofeminismo y la sabiduría indígena, junto con las especulaciones de la ciencia ficción y los descubrimientos de la ciencia contemporánea, tienen un impacto variado en proyectos que abordan la agricultura, la industrialización, los bosques, los océanos y las relaciones entre humanos y animales.

Getty inaugura el programa de impacto climático de PST ART, una colaboración innovadora que promueve la acción climática en el ámbito de los museos

Los Angeles, CA, April 23, 2024—Continuing Earth Day celebrations, Getty today announced the inauguration of a Climate Impact Program for the largest art event in the United States, PST ART (formerly known as Pacific Standard Time). Returning on September 15 with the theme of Art &amp; Science Collide, PST ART brings together more than 60 exhibiting institutions throughout Southern California, offering an opportunity at an unprecedented scale for institutions to build community, unite in climate action, and test and study sustainable exhibition practices while fostering collaboration on minimizing environmental impact within the museum field.
“The effects of climate change are increasingly part of our daily lives, and are all around us,” said Katherine E. Fleming, President and CEO of the J. Paul Getty Trust. “Many of the exhibitions in Art &amp; Science Collide underscore the magnitude of the climate crisis and also the ways we can engage as change-makers. Indeed, the presenting institutions throughout Southern California will bethe proving ground behind the scenes for diverse, data-driven sustainability practices that have the potential to alter the arts and culture sector at large.”
Getty is making the PST ART Climate Impact Program available to all PST ART partners who are presenting exhibitions by offering webinars about local and global efforts to stage art exhibitions more sustainably; direct consulting with experts to help PST ART project teams identify where they can have the most impact; and guidance for organizations as they implement a wide variety of emissions-saving and waste-cutting initiatives. Additionally, the program encourages partner institutions to complete a Climate Impact Report for their PST ART exhibition. This report delves into the environmental footprint of the exhibition, offering a data-driven analysis of emissions from travel and shipping, waste from fabrication and construction, and worker and community engagement. Funded by Getty, the Climate Impact Program is led by LHL Consulting.
“As trusted institutions, museums have the power to support the health and resilience of their communities while showcasing creative climate leadership through thoughtful, responsible exhibition preparation and presentation,” said Laura Lupton, Founder and Principal of LHL Consulting. “PST ART provides a singular framework to help museums build climate fluency; measure, improve, and report their impacts; and work collaboratively to support a healthier, more sustainable region. Getty is creating a model of leadership and cross-sector support in Southern California that can be replicated across the country and around the world.”
In addition to offering trainings on the nuts and bolts of measuring and managing the climate impact of exhibitions, LHL Consulting is leading programming on how to build engagement around climate conscious institutional practices—including fostering buy-in among boards, executive leaders, and colleagues. Organizations participating in the Climate Impact Program have also been provided with opportunities for climate fluency training for their staff, individual consultations to set and meet project based goals, and data-backed recommendations to support meaningful change.
“There has been a growing desire for the art world to take ownership of its impact, and as a result we're seeing more willingness than ever to rethink systems and habits” said Kelsey Shell, Environmental &amp; Sustainability Strategist at MOCA. “The Climate Impact Program has helped bring more people into the conversation, connecting peer organizations around this work. I'm excited to see where this collaboration leads."
Alongside the Climate Impact Program, Getty is also supporting Gallery Climate Coalition to update its carbon calculator, a tool that allows institutions to measure, understand, and reduce carbon emissions related to key areas of impacts in the sector, such as shipping, travel, and materials. The tool will allow organizations to target their actions by measuring environmental impacts, ensuring they can most effectively cut emissions in line with reduction targets.
Under the umbrella of the Climate Impact Program, PST ART projects are:
• Piloting methods to reduce institutional energy use, such as 
o The Museum of Contemporary Art (MOCA) is piloting wider climate control parameters at the Geffen Contemporary for the run of Olafur Eliasson’s PST ART exhibition. This effort aims to reduce building energy use and is supported by the installation of a new Digital Energy Management System.
o The Hammer Museum is piloting the new international Bizot Green Guidelines, expanded climate condition standards for gallery temperature and humidity based on recent conservation research. Adoption of these updated protocols will significantly reduce the Hammer’s HVAC energy use, the largest component of its carbon footprint.
• Planning ahead to reduce impact, such as
o Los Angeles Contemporary Exhibitions (LACE) took advantage of a consolidated ground shipment that came earlier this year for the Frieze LA art fair to transport works for its PST ART exhibition. Too often, special exhibitions have depended upon dedicated shipments for art works, a carbon intensive practice.
o The Museum of Latin American Art (MOLAA) is prioritizing artist residencies, with new artworks created on site in Long Beach to reduce the need for object transportation.
• Thoughtfully approaching exhibition build practices, such as
o The Huntington is including sustainability criteria in its exhibition design, from sourcing green materials for the build to reusing casework and frames for display.
o Fulcrum Arts sourced climate responsible materials for their build out, including choices of plywood, insulation and acoustic dampening products. Getty will extend the reach of this work in 2025 by partnering with Gallery Climate Coalition to present a major conference in Los Angeles on the latest thinking in environmental responsibility for museums and the broader art community. This event will allow museums and galleries in Southern California to not only report on the outcomes of their climate actions for PST ART but also come together with leading experts to generate new ideas to tackle critical environmental issues. The summit will be a landmark event that unites the Southern Californian visual arts community, generating confidence, clarity, and most importantly accelerating urgent and effective climate action.
Exhibitions and Programs Addressing Climate Solutions
More than twenty institutions—nearly one-third of PST ART participants—will present exhibitions and programs for Art &amp; Science Collide centered on the climate crisis and its potential solutions. Tenets of ecofeminism and Indigenous knowledge, speculative insights from science fiction, and discoveries of contemporary science variously inform projects on agriculture and industrialization, forests and oceans, and humans and animals.

Más de 40 galerías en el gran Los Ángeles únase al programa de galerías participantes para PST ART: El arte y la ciencia colisionan

Los Angeles, CA, February 27, 2024 – Getty today announced that more than 40 art galleries in Los Angeles and throughout Southern California have joined the Participating Gallery Program of PST ART: Art &amp; Science Collide, the expansive collaborative event that will begin on September 15, 2024. In this third edition of PST ART—formerly known as Pacific Standard Time—dozens of museums, scientific institutions, and performing arts organizations will offer a multidisciplinary and multifaceted exploration of the intersections of art and science. Their exhibitions and programs, on view over the course of five months, will be amplified by the presentations of the galleries in this third iteration of PST ART’s Participating Gallery Program.
Participating galleries in Downtown Los Angeles, Culver City, Santa Monica, Hollywood, West Hollywood, and beyond will offer group and solo exhibitions, artist-curated projects, and installations featuring a diverse array of contemporary artists. Throughout the duration of Art &amp; Science Collide, a vibrant cross-section of rising and established galleries will present works that explore urgent topics ranging from climate change and environmental justice to the future of artificial intelligence and alternative medicine.
Katherine E. Fleming, President of the J. Paul Getty Trust, said, “Come September, we want to see the confluence of art and science explored in every corner of Southern California’s creative communities. The Participating Gallery Program is an essential element of this vision and an important part of PST ART’s constellation of offerings. Galleries are a vital part of the art and culture ecosystem across the region, and their shows will pose more questions, offer more hypotheses, and unearth more discoveries from some of the brightest and most thought-provoking artists working today.”
“PST ART is an initiative that is historically much overdue, and I could not be more thrilled to contribute to the conversation,” said Esther Kim Varet, founder of Los Angeles-based gallery Various Small Fires. “Our generation, faced with the existential threat of our planet’s sixth extinction, feels impelled to rethink and reframe our entire relationship to art. There has been no goal more ambitious than the Getty’s aim to rewrite art history through the pertinent topic of art and science.”
Exhibitions will include a reexamination of Jeffrey Deitch’s prescient 1992 exhibition Post Human; a presentation of Betye Saar’s monumental altar assemblage Mojotech (1987) at Roberts Projects; and, at Various Small Fires, an exhibition dedicated to Newton and Helen Mayer Harrison, whose work imagined possibilities for ecological repair.

Edinburgh Science Festival

Los Angeles, October 31, 2023—Getty today announced that the next edition of the region-wide PST ART collaboration (previously known as Pacific Standard Time) will incorporate a dazzling spectrum of public programs throughout Southern California—ranging from cutting-edge performing arts commissions to rocket launches, and from participatory art projects and action-centered discussions to a free outdoor art and science family festival—all on the theme of Art &amp; Science Collide. 
Starting in September 2024 and continuing for five months, PST ART: Art &amp; Science Collide will comprise more than 60 deeply researched exhibitions developed by arts organizations and scientific institutions throughout Southern California, featuring over 800 artists in mind-expanding explorations of topics ranging from ancient cosmology to Indigenous sci-fi, and from artificial intelligence to environmental justice. The new public programs organized by partner organizations, community-based groups, and Getty itself will make Art &amp; Science Collide not only the largest art project in the United States but also an innovative model for public programming at an unprecedented scale.
Katherine E. Fleming, President and CEO of the J. Paul Getty Trust, said, “Like a productive collision that sets objects spinning off in new directions, the programs we announce today will move audiences toward fresh insights and illuminating encounters. We’re proud that Getty is heightening the already exceptional ambitions of Art &amp; Science Collide by enabling our partners to present these lively, involving, and diverse programs starting less than a year from now.”
As part of its major public outreach, Getty will join with the internationally renowned Edinburgh Science organization in November 2024 to present a free, three-day PST ART x Science Family Festival. Offering participatory hands-on workshops, roving demonstrations, a full performance slate, and a celebratory atmosphere with music and food, the outdoor festival will bring the theme of Art &amp; Science Collide to children ages 4 to 14 and their families. 
Dr. Simon Gage OBE, CEO and Director of Edinburgh Science, said, “It is particularly exciting for a Scottish organization to be immersed in the intense creativity of the artistic, scientific, and technological communities of the greater Los Angeles area. We are simply delighted to work with Getty and the extraordinary PST ART partners on the Art x Science Family Festival. We are united by a passion for staging exceptional and exciting interactive events that both amaze and enable learning and discovery.”
New grants announced today, which bring Getty’s support for Art &amp; Science Collide to $19 million, will fund dozens of engaging public programs throughout Southern California organized by CaltechLive; Clockshop; Crenshaw Dairy Mart; The Huntington Library, Art Museum, and Botanical Gardens; L.A. Dance Project; LACMA’s Art + Technology Lab; LA Phil; The Music Center; The New Children’s Museum; REDCAT (Roy and Edna Disney CalArts Theater); Skirball Cultural Center; and the University of Southern California.
Among the participatory programs will be The Music Center’s presentation of The Gift, a meditation on astrophysics in which an outdoor plaza will become a music-filled “reading room” where participants encounter an illustrated book based on the research of Dr. Natalie Gosnell, associate professor of physics at Colorado College. Commenting on the collaboration, Gosnell said, “Astrophysics is really a discipline of storytelling, where we use clues gathered from telescopes to better understand objects in the sky. With The Gift, my co-creators and I tell a story inspired by my astrophysics research in a way that is inviting, welcoming, and weaves together themes of grief, loss, and renewal. We are thrilled to participate in PST ART: Art &amp; Science Collide and bring The Gift to Los Angeles.”
Three organizations—LA Plaza de Cultura y Artes, LA Commons, and the Lancaster Museum of Art and History—have joined Getty as Community Hubs for Art &amp; Science Collide. Helping to bring the initiative to people where they live, the Hubs will engage nearby grassroots organizations, public agencies, STEAM educators, and young creatives to develop and present their own programs on the Art &amp; Science Collide themes. Offerings will range from art workshops to habitat restoration projects.
Other groundbreaking programs that increase public outreach in multiple locations, from San Diego to Northeast LA, will take place throughout the duration of Art &amp; Science Collide as PST ART Weekends. These Getty-supported events will make PST ART a “festival of festivals,” bringing together neighboring institutions. Each weekend will serve as an audience magnet for exhibition-hopping, socializing, and evening-hour capstone performances programmed by PST ART partners. 
Programs that kick off PST ART Weekends will include an evening in the Quantum Vibrations series curated by Josh Kun, a professor in the USC Annenberg School and Vice Provost for the Arts at USC. “I am honored to be working with Getty again on PST ART,” Kun said. "My series explores the intersection of art and science through the work of artists who think about music in scientific contexts and use music to pose scientific questions, about everything from speculative world-making to non-human music makers to quantum approaches to listening. I'm especially excited these encounters will take place in neighborhoods across the city."
As in past editions of PST ART, galleries throughout Los Angeles and Southern California designated as affiliates will present dozens of independently organized exhibitions on the initiative’s theme. As previously announced, Getty also has formed a partnership with Frieze, amplifying the presence of Art &amp; Science Collide internationally.
Highlights of Partner Programming
Beginning in September 2024, audiences will be invited to participate in a broad range of events and public programs organized by PST ART partners, such as: 
Blasting Off with Art &amp; Science Collide
<ul><li>LACMA’s Art + Technology Lab will produce American Artist's The Monophobic Response. The performance will engage the ideas of science fiction author Octavia E. Butler's Parable novels to reimagine a rocket engine test that was carried out in Arroyo Seco Canyon in 1936 by the precursor to NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory.</li><li>The Wende Museum, an art museum, cultural center, and archive of the Cold War that is an exhibition partner in Art &amp; Science Collide, will also help the collaboration “lift off” by sending a replica of the first artificial Earth satellite into orbit on October 4, 2024, the 67th anniversary of the Soviet Union’s launch of Sputnik. This ambitious performative project on the culture of science is being designed and implemented by participants in Stanford University’s Student Space Initiative, under the auspices of Wende and PST ART. Like Sputnik itself, the students’ satellite will send data back to Earth, in this case including news about Art &amp; Science Collide.</li></ul>
Bringing Science to the Stage and Art to the Observatory
<ul><li>The biological basis of empathy will be the foundation of the L.A. Dance Project’s Resonance, featuring commissioned dance works by outstanding contemporary choreographers in collaboration with research scientists. Each performance of Resonance will be followed by a guided audience discussion about empathy and a call-to-action in partnership with a community organization. </li><li>Taking complex ideas in astrophysics and translating them into a moving and accessible narrative for people of all ages, The Music Center
will present The Gift, for which an outdoor plaza will become an intimate “reading room” augmented with a musical score and digital interventions. The Gift will also be mounted at the historic Mount Wilson Observatory overlooking Pasadena. </li><li>The practice of field recording—capturing audio outside the studio from sources as varied as underwater sounds, electromagnetic vibrations, or insect activity—will be the focus of LA Phil’s Noon to Midnight festival of new music, animating every part of the Walt Disney Concert Hall campus with sound installations and live performances. The event will feature well-known and emerging composers, performers, and ensembles, culminating in a work created by a major cross-disciplinary artist with the LA Phil and Los Angeles Master Chorale.</li></ul>
PST ART Weekends from Montecito Heights to South Broadway
<ul><li>PST ART Weekends will kick off in October 2024 with a live performance at Debs Park by Black Quantum Futurism, co-founded by Camae Ayewa (Moor Mother) and Rasheedah Phillips, artists at the vanguard of Black musical futurism and audio world-making. Their performance is part of Quantum Vibrations, a four-part series of performances curated by Josh Kun, Professor and Chair in Cross-Cultural Communication at the USC Annenberg School. </li><li>PST ART Weekends will come to a close in December 2024 with Live Night: Cruising Bodies, Spirits, and Machines, a celebratory evening at the iconic, 1,600-seat theater at Ace Hotel co-presented by REDCAT and UCLA's Center for the Art of Performance. Featuring various experimental performances, Live Night is inspired by REDCAT's exhibition in Art &amp; Science Collide, which rethinks artificial intelligence through Indigenous, Brown, and Queer perspectives.</li></ul>
Food, Water, and Grassroots Activism
<ul><li>Crenshaw Dairy Mart will organize a season of workshops, conversations, and community events around its abolitionist pods—autonomously irrigated, solar-powered gardens in geodesic domes, designed by the Inglewood-based arts non-profit to serve communities across LA County impacted by food insecurity, housing insecurity, and the prison industrial complex. </li><li>Clockshop will engage communities along the LA River in Northeast LA with art workshops, ecological restoration, and artist-led nature experiences to foster an understanding of human/water interactions in their own backyards from parking lots to wetlands. </li></ul>
Gathering Young People to Confront Climate Change

Getty announces unprecedented, region-wide public programming for PST ART: 'Art & Science Collide,' expanding the impact of dozens of exhibitions throughout Southern California

Los Ángeles, 31 de octubre de 2023 — Hoy, Getty anunció que la próxima edición de la colaboración PST ART a nivel regional (anteriormente conocida como Pacific Standard Time) incorporará una sorprendente variedad de programas públicos en todo el sur de California, que abarcarán desde encargos de artes escénicas vanguardistas hasta lanzamientos de cohetes, pasando por proyectos artísticos participativos y debates centrados en la acción hasta un festival gratuito de arte y ciencia al aire libre para la familia, todo esto alrededor de la temática de El arte y la ciencia colisionan.
Desde septiembre de 2024 y durante cinco meses, PST ART: El arte y la ciencia colisionan ofrecerá más de 60 exposiciones, las cuales requirieron mucha investigación y fueron desarrolladas por organizaciones artísticas e instituciones científicas de todo el sur de California, con la participación de más de 800 artistas que amplían sus horizontes mediante la exploración de temas que van desde las cosmologías antiguas hasta la ciencia ficción indígena, y desde la inteligencia artificial hasta la justicia medioambiental. Los nuevos programas públicos organizados por organizaciones asociadas, grupos comunitarios y el propio Getty harán que El arte y la ciencia colisionan no solo sea el proyecto de arte más grande en los Estados Unidos, sino también un modelo innovador para la programación pública a una escala sin precedentes.
Katherine E. Fleming, presidenta y directora ejecutiva del J. Paul Getty Trust, expresó: "Como una colisión productiva que hace girar los objetos en nuevas direcciones, los programas que anunciamos hoy guiarán a las audiencias en dirección a nuevas ideas y encuentros reveladores. Nos enorgullece que Getty esté intensificando las ya excepcionales ambiciones de El arte y la ciencia colisionan, ya que permite que nuestros socios presenten estos programas llenos de vida, participativos y diversos que comenzarán en menos de un año".
Como parte de su importante difusión pública, Getty se unirá a la organización internacionalmente conocida como Edinburgh Science en noviembre de 2024 para presentar un festival familiar gratuito de tres días, el PST ART x Science Family Festival. Con talleres prácticos y participativos, demostraciones itinerantes, un completo programa de espectáculos y un ambiente festivo con música y comida, el festival al aire libre acercará la temática del evento El arte y la ciencia colisionan a niños y niñas de 4 a 14 años y sus familias.
El Dr. Simon Gage, miembro de la Orden del Imperio Británico (OBE, por sus siglas en inglés), presidente y director ejecutivo de Edinburgh Science, expresó: "Es especialmente emocionante para una organización escocesa sumergirse en la intensa creatividad de las comunidades artísticas, científicas y tecnológicas del área metropolitana de Los Ángeles. Estamos encantados de colaborar con Getty y los excepcionales socios del PST ART en la realización del Art x Science Family Festival. Nos une la pasión por organizar eventos interactivos excepcionales y emocionantes que sorprenden y fomentan el aprendizaje y el descubrimiento".
Las nuevas subvenciones anunciadas hoy, que incrementan el apoyo de Getty para El arte y la ciencia colisionan a $19 millones, financiarán docenas de programas públicos atractivos en todo el sur de California organizados por: CaltechLive; Clockshop; Crenshaw Dairy Mart; la Biblioteca, el Museo de Arte y el Jardín botánico Huntington (The Huntington Library, Art Museum, and Botanical Gardens); la organización L.A. Dance Project; el Laboratorio de arte y tecnología del LACMA; la Filarmónica de Los Ángeles; el Centro de Música (Music Center); el Nuevo Museo de los Niños (New Children’s Museum); el Teatro CalArts Roy y Edna Disney (REDCAT, por sus siglas en inglés); el Centro Cultural Skirball (Skirball Cultural Center), y la Universidad del Sur de California.

Entre los programas participativos estará la presentación de The Gift (El regalo) por parte del Music Center, una reflexión sobre la astrofísica en la que una plaza al aire libre se convertirá en una íntima "sala de lectura" llena de música. Los participantes encontrarán un libro ilustrado basado en la investigación de la Dra. Natalie Gosnell, profesora asociada de Física en el Colorado College. Gosnell comentó sobre la colaboración, y afirmó: "La astrofísica es verdaderamente una disciplina narrativa, donde utilizamos pistas recopiladas de telescopios para comprender mejor los objetos en el cielo. Con The Gift (El regalo), mis cocreadores y yo contamos una historia inspirada en mi investigación en astrofísica de una manera que resulta atractiva, acogedora y que entrelaza temas de dolor, pérdida y renovación. Estamos encantados de participar en PST ART: El arte y la ciencia colisionan y de traer The Gift (El regalo) a Los Ángeles".
Tres organizaciones se han unido a Getty como centros comunitarios para El arte y la ciencia colisionan: la Plaza de Cultura y Artes, LA Commons y el Museo de Arte e Historia de Lancaster (Lancaster Museum of Art and History). Para llevar la iniciativa a las comunidades locales, los Centros involucrarán a organizaciones de base popular cercanas, agencias públicas, educadores de las áreas de Ciencia, Tecnología, Ingeniería, Artes y Matemáticas (STEAM, por sus siglas en inglés) y jóvenes creativos para desarrollar y presentar sus propios programas sobre los temas alrededor de El arte y la ciencia colisionan. Se ofrecerán desde talleres de arte hasta proyectos de restauración de hábitats.
Además, se llevarán a cabo otros programas innovadores que ampliarán la difusión en varios lugares, desde San Diego hasta el noreste de Los Ángeles, durante los Fines de Semana de PST ART en el marco de El arte y la ciencia colisionan. Estos eventos respaldados por Getty convertirán a PST ART en un "festival de festivales", que reunirá a instituciones vecinas. Cada fin de semana servirá como un imán para la audiencia, que podrá recorrer las exposiciones, socializar y disfrutar de las presentaciones culminantes programadas por los socios de PST ART para las horas de la noche.
Los programas que inauguran los Fines de Semana de PST ART incluirán una velada en la serie Quantum Vibrations (Vibraciones cuánticas), curada por Josh Kun, profesor en Annenberg School y vicerrector de las Artes en la Universidad del Sur de California (USC, por sus siglas en inglés). "Es un honor volver a trabajar con Getty en el PST ART", dijo Kun. "Mi serie explora la intersección entre el arte y la ciencia a través del trabajo de artistas que reflexionan sobre la música en contextos científicos y la utilizan para plantear problemas científicos sobre cualquier tema, desde la creación de mundos especulativos hasta los creadores no humanos de música y los enfoques cuánticos de la escucha. Me entusiasma especialmente que estos encuentros se lleven a cabo en barrios de toda la ciudad".

Como en ediciones anteriores del PST ART, las galerías en todo Los Ángeles y el sur de California designadas como afiliadas presentarán docenas de exposiciones organizadas de forma independiente sobre el tema de la iniciativa.Tal como se anunció anteriormente, Getty también ha establecido una asociación con Frieze, que refuerza la presencia de El arte y la ciencia colisionan a nivel internacional.
Aspectos destacados de la programación de socios
A partir de septiembre de 2024, el público estará invitado a participar en numerosos eventos y programas públicos organizados por los socios del PST ART, tales como:
Despegando con El arte y la ciencia colisionan
· El Laboratorio de arte y tecnología del LACMA producirá The Monophobic Response (La respuesta monofóbica), de American Artist. La performance hará referencia a las ideas de las novelas Parable (Parábola) de la autora de ciencia ficción Octavia E. Butler para reimaginar una prueba del motor de un cohete que llevó a cabo el precursor del Laboratorio de Propulsión a Chorro de la NASA en el cañón Arroyo Seco en 1936.
· El Museo Wende (The Wende Museum), un museo de arte, centro cultural y archivo de la Guerra Fría, que participa como socio en la exposición El arte y la ciencia colisionan, también ayudará a que la colaboración "despegue" poniendo en órbita una réplica del Sputnik, el primer satélite artificial de la Tierra, el 4 de octubre de 2024, en el 67.º aniversario del lanzamiento que realizó la Unión Soviética. Este ambicioso proyecto performativo sobre la cultura de la ciencia está siendo diseñado y ejecutado por los participantes de la Iniciativa Espacial para Estudiantes de la Universidad de Stanford, bajo el auspicio de Wende y PST ART. Al igual que el propio Sputnik, el satélite de los estudiantes enviará datos de vuelta a la Tierra, e incluirá, en este caso, noticias sobre El arte y la ciencia colisionan.
Traer la ciencia a escena y el arte al observatorio
· Las bases biológicas de la empatía serán la premisa del proyecto Resonance (Resonancia) de L.A. Dance Project, que presenta obras de danza encargadas a destacados coreógrafos contemporáneos en colaboración con investigadores científicos. Cada presentación de Resonance (Resonancia) estará seguida por un debate guiado con la audiencia sobre la empatía y un llamado a la acción en colaboración con una organización comunitaria.

· El Centro de Música (Music Center) presentará el proyecto The Gift (El Regalo), el cual toma ideas complejas de la astrofísica y las traduce en una narración conmovedora y accesible para personas de todas las edades. En este proyecto, una plaza al aire libre se convertirá en íntimas "salas de lectura" que, además, contarán con una partitura musical e intervenciones digitales. The Gift también se montará en el histórico Observatorio del Monte Wilson con vista a Pasadena.
· La práctica de la grabación de campo —hacer grabaciones de audio fuera del estudio a partir de fuentes tan variadas como sonidos submarinos, vibraciones electromagnéticas o la actividad de los insectos— será el tema central del festival de nueva música Noon to Midnight (Desde el mediodía hasta la medianoche) de la Filarmónica de Los Ángeles, que dará vida a cada parte del campus del Walt Disney Concert Hall con instalaciones sonoras y actuaciones en vivo. El evento contará con compositores, intérpretes y grupos, tanto conocidos como emergentes, y culminará con una obra creada por un importante artista multidisciplinario en colaboración con la Filarmónica y el Coro Maestro de Los Ángeles.
Fines de Semana de PST ART desde Montecito Heights hasta South Broadway
· Los Fines de Semana de PST ART comenzarán en octubre de 2024 con una presentación en vivo en Debs Park de Black Quantum Futurism, cofundada por Camae Ayewa (Moor Mother) y Rasheedah Phillips, artistas que están a la vanguardia del futurismo musical negro y la creación de mundos sonoros. Su presentación es parte de Quantum Vibrations (Vibraciones cuánticas), una serie de cuatro partes de presentaciones curadas por Josh Kun, profesor y presidente de Comunicación Intercultural en la Annenberg School de la USC.
· Los Fines de semana de PST ART llegarán a su fin en diciembre de 2024 con Live Night: Cruising Bodies, Spirits, and Machines (Noche en vivo: cuerpos, espíritus y máquinas navegantes), una noche de celebración en el icónico teatro con capacidad para 1,600 personas en el Ace Hotel, copresentada por REDCAT y el centro para las Artes Escénicas de la UCLA (Center for the Art of Performance). Con una variedad de presentaciones experimentales, Live Night (Noche en vivo) se inspira en la exhibición de REDCAT en El arte y la ciencia colisionan, que reimagina la inteligencia artificial desde las perspectivas de indígenas, personas negras y el género no binario.

Alimentación, agua y activismo de base
· Crenshaw Dairy Mart organizará una temporada de talleres, conversaciones y eventos comunitarios en torno a sus cápsulas abolicionistas, jardines que funcionan con energía solar y se riegan de forma autónoma en cúpulas geodésicas, diseñados por la organización artística sin fines de lucro con sede en Inglewood para abastecer a comunidades de todo el condado de Los Ángeles que se ven afectadas por la inseguridad alimentaria, la falta de vivienda y la presencia del complejo industrial penitenciario.
· Clockshop involucrará a comunidades a lo largo del río Los Ángeles en el noreste con talleres de arte, restauración ecológica y experiencias en la naturaleza lideradas por artistas. El objetivo es fomentar la comprensión de las interacciones entre los humanos y el agua en sus propios entornos, desde estacionamientos hasta humedales.
Reuniendo a jóvenes para enfrentar el cambio climático
· El Centro Cultural Skirball (Skirball Cultural Center) presentará un programa en el que participarán jóvenes activistas climáticos, poetas y artistas que aportan un enfoque transversal a la lucha contra los devastadores efectos del cambio climático.
· La Biblioteca Huntington, el Museo de Arte y el Jardín Botánico (The Huntington Library, Art Museum, and Botanical Gardens) serán la sede de una gran cumbre de la juventud sobre sustentabilidad y cambio climático. La cumbre, que reunirá hasta 300 estudiantes de secundaria, se centrará en soluciones impulsadas por jóvenes para la crisis climática.
Podrán encontrar una lista completa de los programas ofrecidos por las doce organizaciones asociadas financiadas por subvenciones y los tres centros comunitarios aquí. Habrá más información sobre los programas cuando se acerque la fecha de inauguración de PST ART: El arte y la ciencia colisionan.

Getty anuncia una programación pública sin precedentes en toda la región y aumenta el impacto de docenas de exposiciones en todo el sur de California para PST ART: El arte y la ciencia colisionan

Hammer Museum: ikkibawiKrrr

Getty Logo

Seúl, Corea (14 de agosto de 2023) — Hoy, Frieze reveló más detalles sobre una nueva asociación mundial con Getty, la institución cultural y filantrópica con sede en Los Ángeles, que se lanzará en septiembre de 2023 en Frieze Seúl y culminará en septiembre de 2024, con la inauguración de PST ART. En conjunto, las dos organizaciones colaborarán en una serie de encargos y eventos que amplificarán la próxima edición de PST ART: “El arte y la ciencia colisionan” y ofrecerán contenido, programación y experiencias en todo Seúl, Londres y Los Ángeles.
PST ART (anteriormente, Pacific Standard Time), una iniciativa de Getty, reúne a museos e instituciones de todo el sur de California en uno de los eventos artísticos más expansivos del mundo. Para la edición 2024, Getty ha proporcionado subvenciones a más de 45 organizaciones con el fin de respaldar las investigaciones y la planificación de una amplia gama de exposiciones que fomentarán el diálogo cívico en torno a algunas de las cuestiones más acuciantes de nuestros tiempos. El evento PST ART: “El arte y la ciencia colisionan”, que se inaugurará en septiembre de 2024, contará con la presencia de más de 818 artistas en más de 50 exposiciones coordinadas, con temáticas que abarcan desde el cambio climático, la justicia ambiental y el conocimiento indígena hasta la inteligencia artificial, las cosmologías del pasado y el futuro y los límites de la bioingeniería.
Previo a la edición 2024 de PST ART, Frieze y Getty trabajarán juntos durante un año en el que llevarán a cabo distintas actividades para dar a conocer la iniciativa global en centros de arte internacionales clave. Los eventos comenzarán en Frieze Seúl 2023 con un encargo al colectivo coreano de investigación visual ikkibawiKrrr; luego, la colaboración se trasladará a Frieze Londres, con la presentación de una nueva obra de la artista interdisciplinaria radicada en Los Ángeles Candice Lin y culminará con la inauguración de PST ART en septiembre de 2024. Esta asociación es un reflejo del compromiso que comparten Frieze y Getty de defender el ecosistema diverso de artistas e instituciones del sur de California al ofrecer una plataforma para que la audiencia internacional pueda interactuar con el rico paisaje cultural de la región.
ikkibawiKrrr HARÁ UNA PRESENTACIÓN EN FRIEZE SEÚL
En Frieze Seúl, que se llevará a cabo del 6 al 9 de septiembre en COEX, el colectivo coreano ikkibawiKrrr presentará un nuevo video e interpretación interactiva que exploran el ecosistema marino y la sustentabilidad ambiental y hacen hincapié en las haenyeo: una comunidad de buceadoras de la isla Jeju que se ganan el sustento cosechando algas y mariscos. La obra toma como punto de partida un dicho de la comunidad de las haenyeo, “el buceo se hace en compañía”, que hace referencia a la cercanía entre sí y con el mar, incluidas las criaturas que lo habitan y las historias míticas. Para crear la obra en video, ikkibawiKrrr trabajó en estrecha colaboración con las haenyeo, que son una parte imborrable de la identidad de la isla.
Junto con la instalación en video de ikkibawiKrrr, habrá una presentación interactiva denominada Flavors of the Sea (Sabores del mar) (2023) que se llevará a cabo todos los días en la feria. Tanto el video como la presentación interactiva profundizan en la obra SeaweedStory (Historia sobre las algas) (2022) de ikkibawiKrrr, que se presentará en el evento PST ART dentro de la exposición “Respira(ción): un camino hacia la justicia climática y social” en el Hammer Museum, Los Ángeles, en 2024.
CANDICE LIN PRESENTARÁ UN ENCARGO NUEVO EN FRIEZE LONDRES
En Frieze Londres, que tendrá lugar del 11 al 15 de octubre en The Regent’s Park, la artista interdisciplinaria radicada en Los Ángeles Candice Lin presentará una obra nueva en la que emplea las tradicionales técnicas de teñido con
índigo —cuyo uso ya ha demostrado en obras como Seeping, Rotting, Resting, Weeping (Filtrándose, pudriéndose, descansando, llorando) (2021)— y continúa con su investigación sobre el impacto de las taxonomías científicas. El encargo adoptará la forma de cometas a gran escala teñidas con índigo, inspiradas en las tradiciones asiáticas de fabricación de cometas, que estarán expuestas en la feria y distintos intérpretes las activarán en el Regent’s Park. La investigación de Lin sobre la práctica de la castración en la cultura humana como en la cría de animales y los animales de compañía se verá reflejada en los espacios negativos que crean los orificios centrales tan tradicionales en el diseño de cometas de combate coreanas.
La decoración de la superficie de las cometas contará con imágenes mitológicas y de animales, y, al mismo tiempo, hará referencia a las representaciones de los eunucos en la corte imperial china del siglo XIX. Si repensamos estas historias desde una perspectiva que abarque a todas las especies, el uso que hace Lin de las cometas como medio —la primera vez que lo hace— también evoca el enredo que siempre ha habido entre el arte y la ciencia, lo que hace referencia a las exploraciones históricas de los dispositivos aéreos. Habrá un taller público sobre cometas que se dictará junto con Yaeun Choi, donde los visitantes podrán crear y hacer volar sus propias cometas.
MÁS INFORMACIÓN
