Art Science Complex
Distilling science as a platform for invention, Julie Rauer, Co-Founder of ART SCIENCE COMPLEX, creates metaphysical paintings and drawings, chamber pieces which investigate the nature, structure and function of organic transformations. Julie, an alumnus of The Cooper Union, has both exhibited her metaphorical paintings and drawings, written - collections of speculative science fables in her book, “Bezoar Thirst”, and scores of nonfiction art-science essays and articles - and lectured, at esteemed institutions, nationally and internationally. Recognized by The National Science Foundation and the Journal Science, Julie was awarded the NSF and AAAS certificates, for two of her paintings, for two consecutive years
Bruce Gemmell, also a Co-Founder, is trained as an architect, and identifies with the broadest definition of that term. He has been practicing what he calls “Organic Design Thinking”, a process he devised while a professor. The idea is to unconsciously nurture, rather, than consciously design - therefore exposing deeper desires and impulses from the imagination.
