Rosalind Franklin — Discoveries in DNA
Scientist Rosalind Franklin made the first clear X-Ray image of the structure of DNA while working at King's College in London in 1952. In the Rosalind print series we celebrate this. Her photo Photo 51 led to the discovery of the double helix by James Watson and Francis Crick. Photo 51 proved to be a driving force behind one of the greatest discoveries in the history of science, and has been interpreted into this contemporary art prints series by Wyllie O Hagan. She wrote: "In my view, all that is necessary for faith is the belief that by doing our best we shall succeed in our aims: the improvement of mankind." Rosalind Franklin died at the age of 37 from ovarian cancer.
Transformations in Science and Art
These prints show details of Transformations in Science and Art — a major forty two metre cross-media piece, created during an Arts Residency with Cancer Research UK. The artwork examines the growing awareness of the biological blueprint, DNA, and the vital role it plays in the development of medical research and drug therapy. It celebrates the life and work of the scientists engaged in Cancer Research, and all who are touched by this. The artists gained inspiration from imaging techniques used in the laboratory and creatively interpreted these in this series of lively and colourful prints.
Art Science DNA
In 1985, at a meeting of world's scientists, in California, it was decided to map the sequencing of the human genome. Proposals were introduced for a global Human Genome Project and 10 years later, full-scale decoding began with a target completion date of 2005. However, in the year 2000, a full five years ahead of schedule, the first draft of the human genome was completed. This series of science art prints, reflects questions posed by this discovery. A recurring theme in this Fine Art print series is the inclusion of the labyrinth — an ancient contemplative tool.
