Abstract
"Exhibition (In) Space
On August 27 2003, Mars will be closer to Earth than it has been for 60,000 years - a mere 56 million kilometres away. The Mars Patent is seizing this rare opportunity for short distance teleportation to transport a new artwork to its Mars Exhibition Space (MES)(...) Since perfecting the High Reality Machine (HRM_1.0n) in 2001, the Mars Patent has offered free transportation of artworks to its MES. A scientific explanation of the process is provided on the Mars Patent web site http://www.mars-patent.org along with geological and meteorological conditions of the MES and copies of works already exhibited on Mars. Artworks may be submitted by completing an online form and, once a work has been teleported to the MES, you can keep an eye on it via live web cam footage (note - reverse transportation is not yet available)." - Helen Varley Jamieson for rhizome

especially critics (in art and theory) referring to the wishful escape from Earth's miseries on the next terraformed star are welcome.
- Cooperation partners wanted: funding, promotion and astronomy expertise
