Two artists--a photographer and a fine art printmaker--are collaborating with scientists to create an interdisciplinary art and education project titled, The Transparency of Ice and Deep Time in Antarctica. The project artists will embed with multiple science teams to facilitate learning about U.S. Antarctic Program (USAP) ice-core research while simultaneously documenting science in action. Portraits of scientists, visual documentation of their equipment, and the larger Antarctic landscape will act as artistic muses and the visual basis of their artworks. The resulting art will incorporate scientists' written descriptions of their work and polar experiences. The project's aim is to help elucidate for the public the USAP ice-coring and climate studies, which reveal ecological processes over long temporal and broad spatial scales. The artist'? printed artworks will be collated into a monumentally scaled limited edition artist book. In addition, the artists' framed work will be widely disseminated through traditional fine art and other venues and form the foundation of original, art-based educational and outreach materials.The artists will be based at McMurdo and from there make trips to several field camps to observe drilling and ice core recovery operations. The project will include fine art photography (landscape, portrait, and documentary styles) and handmade prints (woodcuts) with the latter being created with a specialized printmaking press post fieldwork. Both project artists will print their artworks onto archival Washi papers that will ultimately constitute the pages of a large-scale artist book. Annotations written by the field scientists will be incorporated in the artworks and exhibitions. The artist books will be museum-grade, limited edition art objects. Additionally, the artists will create exhibition materials (including framed artworks and scientists' writings) suitable for a broad array of venues including, but not limited to, art, children?s and science museums. While in Antarctica, the artists plan to conduct outreach activities (via Skype) with elementary and college-levels classrooms. Upon return, they will develop STEAM-based (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, Mathematics) lesson plans for elementary school students and a university-level seminar course. The resulting educational resources will reside on the project's online, educational website. This award is an Antarctic Artists and Writers project supported by NSF's Office of Polar Programs.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

两位艺术家 - 摄影师和一位美术版画家 - 与科学家合作，创建了一个跨学科的艺术和教育项目，标题为“冰和深度时间在南极洲的透明度”。该项目艺术家将嵌入多个科学团队，以促进有关美国南极计划（USAP）冰核研究的学习，同时记录行动中的科学。 科学家的肖像，其设备的视觉文档以及更大的南极景观将充当艺术缪斯女神和其艺术品的视觉基础。由此产生的艺术将结合科学家对其作品和极地经历的书面描述。该项目的目的是帮助公众阐明USAP冰和气候研究，这揭示了长期和广泛的空间尺度上的生态过程。艺术家？印刷艺术品将被整理成一本纪念限制的限量版艺术家书。 此外，艺术家的框架作品将通过传统的美术和其他场所进行广泛传播，并构成原始的，基于艺术的教育和外展材料的基础。艺术家将位于麦克穆尔多，从那里开始去几个野外训练营，观察钻探和冰核心恢复行动。 该项目将包括美术摄影（景观，肖像和纪录片样式）和手工印刷品（木刻），后者是由专门的印刷机发布后的现场工作而创建的。两位项目的艺术家都将将其艺术品印在档案WASHI论文中，最终将构成一本大型艺术家书的页面。 现场科学家编写的注释将纳入艺术品和展览中。 艺术家书将是博物馆级，限量版艺术对象。 此外，艺术家将创建适合各种场地的展览材料（包括框架的艺术品和科学家的著作），包括但不限于艺术，儿童和科学博物馆。在南极洲期间，艺术家计划在基本和大学级教室中开展外展活动（通过Skype）。 返回后，他们将为小学生和大学级研讨会课程开发基于Steam的（科学，技术，工程，艺术，数学）课程。由此产生的教育资源将存在于该项目的在线教育网站上。该奖项是由NSF的Polar Program办公室支持的南极艺术家和作家项目。该奖项反映了NSF的法定任务，并被认为是值得通过基金会的知识分子优点和更广泛的影响评估标准通过评估来获得支持的。
