When I came across this today on spacexarch, I was reminded of how art has always be emblematic of the creative spirit. It seems often to arrive first on a scene and is the optimistic harbinger of many great things ahead. And I am also reminded of a piece of work displayed within the window on 11 Av, the artistic imagining of our imaging distant stars with our instruments. I was stricken with great joy that such undertaking as with the Hasselblad cameras on the Apollo missions and the photos produced could be once more grasped within the recognized sphere of art work. That night I had gone out onto the street roaming as though in an urgent search for something not yet disclosed for the moment. After arriving directly and viewing this work, I went back to my place feeling that perhaps I had gone home to the city where my grandfather was from or that it had serendipitously come to me?  I will return soon, I promised myself again, or I already have arrived.
