Only known 'Amphibian-Aspiration Fossil' could bring $150,000+ to lead natural history selection at Heritage
DALLAS, TX.- A one-of-a-kind plate displaying the remains of an fossil remains of an amphibian that choked to death on its prey — believed to be the only specimen of an "amphibian aspiration" known to exist — is estimated to bring $150,000+ to lead a world-class selection of fossils, meteorites and unusually large gemstones in Heritage Auctions' Nature & Science Signature® Auction, Oct. 19-20 in Dallas. "This is definitely a one-of-a-kind, never-to-be-seen-again discovery," said Jim Walker, Director of Nature & Science at Heritage. "The site is closed, which makes this truly a museum piece. Not only is this one of the few fossil examples of this species, this is the only one known with an aspiration. All of these factors combines makes this especially rare and desirable." The specimen dates to the Permian Period (299 to 251 million years ago) and very clearly shows the bones of an amphibian .

The University of Michigan’s Center for Organogenesis unites scientists from many fields who work together to study organ formation, organ function and organ disease. The goal of our research is to use new information gained from these studies to design new and effective strategies to treat disease and repair damaged organs. In the course of this work, we use the microscope and special stains to examine tissues for alterations in structure or function that are characteristic of health or disease. We often marvel at the beauty of these tiny biological structures and share them with you here as Bio-Artography, a fascinating combination of art and science.

On this site, you can purchase images displayed at the Ann Arbor Art Fair Bio-Artography Booth. Proceeds from the sale of this work will directly support graduate and postgraduate training at the University of Michigan Center for Organogenesis.

Scientist's letter to his son fetches $ 6M

A letter the British scientist who co-discovered the structure of DNA wrote to his son announcing the news sold on 10th April, 2013 for a record sumof just over $6 million, Christie's said.

Elizabeth Van Bergen, a spokeswoman for the auction house in New York, said the sale 'did make the world auction record for a letter and was sold for $6,059,750." Without Cristie's added premium, the sale price was $5.3 million, well beyond the initial $1-2 million estimate. The letter from Francis Crick was about him discovering the structure of DNA - AFP

Pierre, I also read an article about auctions of the works of a scientist-artist on your site. Please post them here too.

Wow! Thanks a lot. That really helps me because I am from the field of science & I want the art world to take my work seriously. If friends grant all my wishes without even asking for them how can I express my gratitude?
I am leaving it to you to decide which ones to include. You can choose whatever you want & bring them here!
Recently my name has been added to the on line directory of European artists. I didn't ask for it. People have seen my work & approached me asking me to send my details.
Warm regards
Krishna
