Eduardo Kac: Inner Telescope and Space Poetry
November 2016
Eduardo Kac’s latest work, Inner Telescope, will be realised in outer space by French astronaut Thomas Pesquet, who last week began a six-month mission aboard the International Space Station. Pesquet will fabricate Kac’s work in zero gravity from materials found in the space station. Inner Telescope will have no top, bottom, front or back. It will be “an instrument of observation and poetic reflection, which leads us to rethink our relationship with the world and our position in the universe.”
Kac also launches his artist’s book, Space Poetry, this week in Paris.
