The Pars Foundation was founded from the conviction that art and science are both essentially creative processes. Artists begin with an idea that is ultimately expressed in the form of music, images, or words. Scientists begin with a hypothesis, sketch an idea, and then test and describe it. Every year Pars invites artists and scientists to make a contribution to creative thinking. The current topic, a oeIcea, is situated in a wide variety of contexts: in connection with greenhouse effect, the rise in sea level, or a dancera's muscles before making his first move. Ice absorbs sounds, reflects heat, and cools drinks. Pars Findings demonstrates a variety of different perspectives and ideas by artists and scientists. The book Pars Findings on Ice functions as a visual and textual introduction to the ideas and visions of the artist and scientists who have a strong influence on our perception of today's world.
