Its four sections\, Astronomy\, the Space Race\, Futurisms\, and Aliens\, bring together artists from the East\, the West\, and the Global South and trace how they responded to advances in space science and technology and connected these discoveries to their own cultural contexts. \nThe exhibition combines historical artifacts\, including a full-scale model of Sputnik-1\, an original meteorite\, and cosmos-themed sculptures\, with contemporary and Cold War-era artwork inspired by the cosmos. \nArtists include Pyotr Belenok\, Nuotama Bodomo\, Chesley Bonestell\, Beatriz Cortez\, David van Eyssen\, Bettina Forget\, Chitra Ganesh\, Mark Steven Greenfield\, Lia Halloran\, Jitish Kallat\, Paul Laffoley\, Alexei Leonov\, Aaron Samuel Mulenga\, Truong Minh Quy\, Sun Ra\, Leo Raudys\, Ionel Talpazan\, Fedir Tetyanych\, and Li Tianbing. \nCompeting Cosmologies is on view through October 17\, 2027.
