Art Loft: Space Station Artwork on Display in New York City [Slide Show]

[Bok]

When Richard Garriott blasted into orbit three years ago , following in the footsteps of his astronaut father, he didn't go empty-handed. He brought with him 20 paintings and photographs to put on temporary display within the cramped confines of the International Space Station (ISS). That artwork, which Garriott brought home 12 days later, along with six more pieces he created on board the ISS, was on display recently on Manhattan's Lower East Side as part of an exhibit called Celestial Matters , organized to benefit a group of learning centers created in memory of space shuttle Challenger 's tragic final mission.
