26 stunning photos that show how much city skylines have changed over the years

Изображение
You can tell a lot about a city by looking at its skyline. Over the decades, many cities have exploded in size and have introduced ambitious works of architecture to the world. Two decades ago, Dubai was a relatively undeveloped city. Now it's filled with gleaming skyscrapers. And cities like Toronto look virtually unrecognizable compared to a century ago. Here are 13 cities whose skylines look completely different, several decades later. The permission to use some of these photos were obtained through RENTCafé .

Artist:  Bonnie Camplin Venue:  Kunsthaus Glarus Exhibition Title:  Epic Time Date:  May 27 – August 18, 2018 Note:  An interview associated with this exhibition is available here Click here to view slideshow Full gallery of images, press release and link available after the jump. Images: Images courtesy of Kunsthaus Glarus. Photos by Gunnar Meier. Press Release: EPIC TIME details an omnidirectional survey. Individual works are configured as a puzzle to a big whole. It creates a complex web of content-related and visual connections. An invisible system reveals itself through various “access points,” each of which, in turn, allows connection to all other (access) points of the configuration. EPIC TIME is a structure, similar to a neural network that connects different realities, cycles and figures. In various media, Bonnie Camplin (b. 1970, lives and works in London) revolves around universal and complex themes concerning fundamental ques

В центре ультракомпактной карликовой галактики найдена сверхмассивная черная дыра

Недавно в журнале Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society вышла статья большой группы астрофизиков об обнаружении и детальном исследовании сверхмассивной черной дыры в центре одной очень необычной и редкой галактики, UCD3, которая относится к малоизученному пока классу ультракомпактных карликовых галактик. Эта работа, выполненная с помощью спектроскопических наблюдений на одном из самых больших телескопов в мире, позволяет лучше разобраться в загадке возникновения таких галактик. http://bit.ly/2NBnUj2

Artists:  Jan Kiefer, Pedro Wirz Venue:  Nagel Draxler, Cologne Exhibition Title:  There’s no such thing as culture Date:  May 26 – August 31, 2018 Click here to view slideshow Full gallery of images, press release and link available after the jump. Images: Images courtesy of Nagel Draxler, Cologne Press Release: Myths are narratives that, in the complex human process of adopting to specific environments, have proved culturally pregnant.  By believe they become efficient not true. As it has been repeatedly demonstrated by critical cultural sciences since the first half of the 20th century, myth and culture are not  primal  but  constructed . Critique of culture is therefore possible. The artistic approaches of Jan Kiefer and Pedro Wirz could not appear to be more different. Both create imaginary cultures with completely different visual codes and connotations. Wirz sculptures seem to bespeak a culture of earthy myths of origin and fertility and a primit
