Thanks @edelmangallery ・・・ New work from Barbara Diener's series “The Rocket's Red Glare," which is now on our site as part of The Chicago Project! Diener's new series follows in the footsteps of two instrumental rocket scientists in the 1930s: Wernher von Braun in Germany and Jack Parsons in Pasadena, CA. To weave together a sense of these two complicated stories, Diener has photographed places of significance and appropriated archival material. Rather than presenting a complete view of this history, she is posing questions, looking at the way that history is passed on through generations, and how facts are distorted, embellished, or undermined. Learn more about the series on our blog!
