Josef Albers' Structural Constellations series, created between 1948 and 1966, represents a pioneering exploration of plastic laminates as an artistic medium. Leveraging the unique properties these materials, including their smooth surfaces, vibrant coloration, precision in router engraving, Albers machine-engraved works featuring intricate geometric compositions. This study combines archival research with scientific analysis to examine over fifty artworks samples from Anni Foundation...
In this study, mass spectrometric techniques (THM–Py–GCMS, DTMS and ESI–MS) have been used to characterize the organic fraction of early twentieth century oil-based enamel paints. Analysis has carried out on dry liquid samples from historical reference paints, color swatches commercial paint brochures, with a special focus Ripolin. This renowned French brand manufactured for household other uses since 1897, was reportedly by many avant-garde artists. Confirming presence such as Ripolin in...
Nondestructive and microdestructive analytical methods are often essential for the study understanding of paintings. Recent development in portable noninvasive instrumentation has led to growing interest applicability techniques Further, as new becomes commercially available more affordable, conservators scientists able use monitoring analysis ways. A focus six papers these proceedings is interpretation results from instrumentation.
Abstract The richly decorative and imaginative works by French artist Séraphine Louis (1864–1942) have long elicited fascination, her working methods often eluded art historians conservators alike. Working in secret outside established circles, employed materials such as natural resin varnishes was said to used household paints addition traditional artists' oil paints. In this study of six the collections Musée d'Art et d'Archéologie, Senlis (MAA), Museum Modern Art, New York (MoMA),...
ETS2 repressor factor (ERF) insufficiency causes craniosynostosis (CRS4) in humans and mice. ERF is an ETS domain transcriptional regulated by Erk1/2 phosphorylation via nucleo-cytoplasmic shuttling. Here, we analyze the onset development of phenotype Erf-insufficient mouse model evaluate potential residual Erf activity augmented pharmacological compounds to ameliorate disease. appears cause initially compromised frontal bone formation subsequent multisuture synostosis, reflecting distinct...
Abstract This essay focuses on Kazimir Malevich’s painting Black Quadrilateral from the George Costakis collection at MOMus, Thessaloniki, and its newly discovered, unexpected connections with a small drawing Nikolai Khardzhiev in Amsterdam. Situating within theory practices, aims to illustrate how this work bridges two renowned collections, shedding light role of form, color, facture black-and-white Suprematism.
Constant communication between mitochondria and nucleus ensures cellular homeostasis adaptation to mitochondrial stress. Anterograde regulatory pathways involving a large number of nuclear-encoded proteins control biogenesis functions. Such functions are deregulated in cancer cells, resulting proliferative advantages, aggressive disease therapeutic resistance. Transcriptional networks controlling the genes known, however alternative splicing (AS) regulation has not been implicated this...
The synthesis of arsenic-free ceramics from industrial waste is studied. Samples containing siliceous material passed the exploitation leap-guard layer shift reactor whose main oxide -Al 2 O 3 and, with addition natural raw materials and pure oxide, were synthesized thermal electrical properties related to phase spinel group minerals; solid solutions also formed in process synthesis. Insulating established by successive heating cooling specimen for six cycles. Electrical insulating method...
In László Moholy-Nagy’s work, the concept of facture fused material and immaterial, challenging preconceptions about its meaning, practice, purpose, matter use. Facture was explored by artist, in a way quite tune with his Suprematist contemporaries, as an idea, formless phenomenon, well technological or scientific development. Exploring significance this article focuses on theoretical practical affinities that Moholy-Nagy Kazimir Malevich shared early 1920s, expressed their approaches toward...

It examines engagement with materials, including his unconventional choices, like asphalt, highlights exploitation unique working visual properties materials he used. The essay also considers relationship between technology art, how they are integrated in black paint throughout body work.
