For 30+ years, Cynthia Pannucci was the founder-director of the New York City nonprofit, Art & Science Collaborations, Inc. (ASCI). ASCI is known internationally for producing seminal art-sci symposia, exhibitions, and information tools for nurturing this exciting multidisciplinary field.
Today, Cynthia’s long-time passion for the environment is focused on a new venture, ArtSci-Climate. Here, her core personal values and deep concern about the shattering impacts of climate change, drive her to create design ideas for art-sci public engagement projects on the social and cultural challenges of climate change.
These design ideas spring directly from formative early influences, college art training, and skills learned producing wearable art, mixed-media, kinetic, interactive art, Anthropocene art, and biophilia art. See Formative Art on the bottom-half of my website’s Designs page.
Notably, Cynthia was awarded an NEA (National Endowment for the Arts) Visual Arts Fellowship in Crafts, taught at the FIT (Fashion Institute/NYC), and her work has been included in museum group exhibitions including at the Cooper-Hewitt Museum/NYC, while garnering commissions from museums and the Metropolitan Transit Authority/NYC, as well as private and corporate clients like Citicorp’s headquarters.
