CRC/Transregio 280 Art Competition Starts - ENTDeckung

The CRC/Transregio 280 would like to invite artists to be inspired by the topics of the Collaborative Research Center. The aim of the competition is to show that carbon concrete, as a product of science and technology, has multiple relationships to art and nature. What becomes visible, what remains hidden to the researcher and what to the outsider? How can nature and carbon concrete be combined as an art object?

Inspired by science, such as botany and mathematics, art will serve as a source of ideas for new construction methods. Concrete, in combination with other materials, serves as a medium for the artists' creative ideas.
