A flying museum, a solar balloon completely made up of reused plastic bags, with new sections being added each time it travels the world, thus changing techniques, drawings and shapes, and growing in size every time it sets sail in the air.
Gallery On The Move presents Museo Aero Solar in collaboration with The Promenade Gallery in Vlora. Museo Aero Solar (starts in 2006 from an idea of Tomas Saraceno) is a flying museum, a solar balloon completely made up of reused plastic bags, with new sections being added each time it travels the world, thus changing techniques, drawings and shapes, and growing in size every time it sets sail in the air.
MAS stands for a different conception of space and energy, both anomalous and forceful at the same time. The core of the MAS resides in the inventiveness of local inhabitants, not in its image: among collective action and art, do-it-together technology and experiment, it is a voyage back-forward in time.
Museo Aero Solar has already travelled to Sharjah, Milan, Medellin, Lyon, Rapperswil, Tirana, Ein Hawd, Minneapolis, Bonames/Kalbach, Carmignano/Montemurlo and Arnsberg.
