Frederic C. Kaplan
During the past several years, my art has been inspired mainly by theoretical physics and cosmology, by the infinitesimally tiny quantum constituents of the universe as well as by the vastly huge expanse of the cosmos.
Physics was not always the source of my inventions. There were periods when, instead of relying upon sources like Einstein and Hawking, I peered inward. There I found things both worrisome and delightful, sensual and dispassionate, as well as intimate and remote.
It is an intermingling of these two seemingly very different views of reality that are represented in the current exhibit, which lays out side-by-side earlier works with more recent ones.
