THE CITY PASSION FOR ART September 20-October 10, 2010 Pedro Miguel Echenique Chairman Juan Colmenero Vice-chairman Alberto López Basaguren Vice-chairman EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE Igor Campillo Secretary General Ricardo Díez Muiño Head of the The Workshops program Unai Ugalde Head of the The Lectures program Enrique Zárate Head of The City program FOTCIENCIA FOTCIENCIA is a scientific photography contest organised by the Higher Council of Scientific Research (CSIC) and the Spanish Foundation for Science and Technology (FECYT). The event takes science and technology closer to the public by presenting an artistic, aesthetic vision suggested by scientific images and written commentaries on the scientific facts being depicted. The exhibition, comprising a selection of 50 photos selected by the jury, reached San Sebastian after being on show in many cities in Europe, Asia and America. FOTCIENCIA photos are a public resource for the dissemination of science. NANOART21 NanoArt21 was founded by the scientist and artist Cris Orfescu, and is directed at promoting NanoArt throughout the world as a reflection on technological development. Orfescu considers that NanoArt is a more attractive and effective way of communicating with the general public in order to provide information on the new technologies of the 21st century. NanoArt aims to raise the awareness of the general public with regard to nanotechnology and its impact on our lives. “NanoArt is a new art discipline at the art-science-technology intersections. It features nanolandscapes (molecular and atomic landscapes which are natural structures of matter at molecular and atomic scales) and nanosculptures (structures created by scientists and artists by manipulating matter at molecular and atomic scales using chemical and physical processes). These structures are visualized with powerful research tools like scanning electron microscopes and atomic force microscopes and their scientific images are captured and further processed by using different artistic techniques to convert them into artworks showcased for large audiences.” (Cris Orfescu) THE LECTURES PASSION FOR KNOWLEDGE September 27 - October 1, 2010 Pedro Miguel Echenique Chairman Juan Colmenero Vice-chairman Alberto López Basaguren Vice-chairman EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE Igor Campillo Secretary General Ricardo Díez Muiño Head of the The Workshops program Unai Ugalde Head of the The Lectures program Enrique Zárate Head of The City program ORGANIZING COMMITTEE Fernando Cossío President, Fundación Ikerbasque José María Mato General Director, CIC bioGUNE and biomaGune Ginés Morata Professor of Research, Centro de Biología Molecular of CSIC-UAM Luis Oro Director, Instituto Universitario de Catálisis Homogénea, University of Zaragoza Rafael Pardo Director, Fundación BBVA Jose Maria Pitarke General Director, CIC nanoGUNE Joan Rodés Ex-general director, Hospital Clinic of Barcelona Félix Yndurain Head of Department, Faculty of Sciences of the Universidad Autónoma of Madrid The Lectures of Passion for Knowledge brought together speakers from different disciplines, cultures and thinking to engage the public with stories of personal exploration. Nobel laureates and world-leading experts will show their passion for knowledge and deep commitment to research. They spoke about the key moments, developments, challenges and implications of their research and works. The Lectures combined scientific rigor and entertainment to awake the curiosity, the interest, the enthusiasm and critical thinking of the public at large.
