Uranus
EDITOR’s... Uranus is the seventh planet from the Sun. Its name is a reference to the Greek god of the sky, Uranus, who, according to Greek mythology, was the grandfather of Zeus (Jupiter) and father of Cronus (Saturn). It has the third-largest planetary radius and fourth-largest planetary mass in the Solar System. Uranus is similar in composition to Neptune, and both have bulk chemical compositions which differ from that of the larger gas giants Jupiter and Saturn. For this reason, scientists often classify Uranus and Neptune as “ice giants” to distinguish them from the other gas giants. Uranus’s atmosphere is similar to Jupiter’s and Saturn’s in its primary composition of hydrogen and helium, but it contains more “ices” such as water, ammonia, and methane, along with traces of other hydrocarbons. It has the coldest planetary atmosphere in the Solar System, with a minimum temperature of 49 K (−224 °C; −371 °F), and has a complex, layered cloud structure with water thought to make up the lowest clouds and methane the uppermost layer of clouds. Like the other giant planets, Uranus has a ring system, a magnetosphere, and numerous moons. The Uranian system has a unique configuration because its axis of rotation is tilted sideways, nearly into the plane of its solar orbit. Its north and south poles, therefore, lie where most other planets have their equators. In 1986, images from Voyager 2 showed Uranus as an almost featureless planet in visible light, without the cloud bands or storms associated with the other giant planets. Voyager 2 remains the only spacecraft to visit the planet. Observations from Earth have shown seasonal change and increased weather activity as Uranus approached its equinox in 2007. Wind speeds can reach 250 metres per second (900 km/h; 560 mph). Uranus had been observed on many occasions before its recognition as a planet, but it was generally mistaken for a star. Possibly the earliest known observation was by Hipparchos, who in 128 BC might have recorded it as a star for his star catalogue that was later incorporated into Ptolemy’s Almagest.

interview 17 questions for collective 18
Christos Kalogiros Greece
Tell us about your artistic work: why do you do it, what do you want to express, if you have a precise style and a specific technique or change them in every project. As for my artistic work, it minds me to connect reality and fantasy creating my own paradox space. I am achieving this connection by using some elements from reality, my daily routine and juxtapose them with fantastic elements. Within which mood of art you place your artwork (if there is a specific one) My art has realistic ,modern , surrealistic , minimal elements and I believe that has to do with what happens now. Could you tell us something about the art in your country? Is there an active artistic community? Are you part of it? (if there are links to suggest, please indicate them.) The art in Athens is in good level. It could be better but judging by the thing that we also have economical crisis, unfortunately it also affects art. There are different artistic communities but up to now ,I didn’t want to be part of any because I want to be totally free drawing in my own way. What’s a typical day in Christos’s life? A typical day in my life is to work ,so as I can live and after that I am drawing in my project ,I am also training .every day is a full day for me. Traveling for art, for example for personal exhibitions or for other art exhibitions you want to see?Do you like to see others’ art? I would like to travel more than I do because I also work to live and it s not quite easy. I believe that by travelling and by seeing others art, it makes you better and open mind artist. Where are your favorite places or themes where you can find inspiration for your work? My favorite themes have to do with my daily routine, from what I see ,I smell ,the communication with other people, the feelings, my dreams and my childhood. it’s a mixture. Have you studied art or are you self-taught? I am drawing since I was a kid. I am also in the last year of graduation in Athens School of Fine Arts. Do you remember the first artistic work you did? No I don t .the only thing that I remember is that my teacher was telling me ,you are going to be an artist when you grow up. What do you think about social networks and the web about art and artists? I am sure that the positive with social networks is the connection with other artists, easier connection with galleries and better communication with art. Could you talk to us about the idea of your project? With great pleasure,well iam working in large canvases my work 150x250 cm and iam creating my own paradox spaces connecting reality and fantasy. https://www.instagram.com/p/BtjIdG7AA3V/ https://www.instagram.com/p/BiO-eMUh5Ny/ https://www.instagram.com/p/BfRjPs5BGqc/ https://www.instagram.com/p/BfRTMpmBCTC/ https://www.instagram.com/p/BgjoW_pHqKH/ Have you organized any exhibitions in the past? How does it feel to involve others in your art? I have taken part in several exhibitions in the past and I love to communicate with other people my
art. What is your favorite artwork? https://www.instagram.com/p/BtjIdG7AA3V/ If you could show off your artwork anywhere in the world, where would you choose? In MOMA of course Are you reading a book at the moment? There is one book you have on your reading list? I am reading a book for Hokusai, the 36 faces of fuji mountain Is there a famous contemporary artist that you want to report? I like very much jules de balincourt You have been contacted by No Name Collective Gallery and did not know what kind of project we would have made: are you happy to trust us?
