The Shape and Color of Research Project has gone a long way toward raising an
awareness of the relationships between art and research, and it is my hope that
this exhibit, as a digitalized version of the project, will serve to continue this process
beyond the project�s original audience. At the very least, I hope that this catalog will
clearly demonstrate that art, as a creative product, is a presentation of the synthesis of information
filtered through the imagination of the individual artist. Art, as a human artifact, is a re-creation
of the understandable and the imagined. Understanding and imagination are achieved through scrutiny
and reflection�this is the shape and color of research.
