It’s part of a project she started 15 years ago, documenting the moon’s position in the sky in a number of ways. The exhibit’s title is the English translation of the book Galileo published in 1610 as “Siderus Nuncius. Weinstein said the most noted is Latvina-born Vija Celmins, who lives in New York and California and is internationally known for intensely realistic images of star-studded nighttime skies, ocean waves and desert floors. New York artist Jonathan Feldschuh graduated summa cum laude from Harvard University with a degree in physics, then studied painting at the Academy of Fine Arts in Prague . Because Galileo documented the Copernican observation that the earth moves around the sun, he was tried as a heretic and sentenced to life in prison, changed later to house arrest. Galileo has been called the father of modern observational astronomy, the father of modern physics, the father of science and the father of modern science.
