| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The grant was instrumental in helping me travel to the research centres and find unpublished information about art and nuclear research. The research I could do in Geneva and Chicago helped me to understand better how the artists worked with scientists to create art. In particular, the art gallery at the particle science laboratory FermiLab was interesting because the gallery was planned from 1945, in hope for peace in art and science after Hiroshima. The artworks produced there are not about Hiroshima or Fukushima but about atoms and particle. So this complete my research. This research was also crucial in helping me to obtain a book contract with MIT Press. The book is scheduled to appear in 2018.
