Projects

The calendar documents the construction and dismantling of the spectacular rocket Gravity, a monumental ephemeral sculpture. The project was a new commission by Art Catalyst, supported by the Arts Council of England and the Henry Moore Foundation, and built for the show 'Space Soon' at the Camden Roundhouse, London, 9-13 September 2006.

The calendar features a history of space disasters and mistakes by Ken Hollings. Printed in a limited edition.

You can buy a copy online at Cornerhouse, or download a PDF of the calendar from www.aleksandramir.info.
