The sky is such a persistent presence in our lives, it can be easy to take it for granted. However, it truly is a marvel. The sea of gas swirling above our heads provides us with oxygen and moves nourishing water around the globe. It also helps to deflect harmful radiation and allows for air travel. Further out, beyond Earth’s atmosphere, the sky holds untold wonders: stars, galaxies and other worlds. This group show collects works by many artists—all of them paying tribute, in one way or another, to the beauty, power and majesty of the sky.
