Nikola Tesla was a brilliant inventor who worked with technology to improve life for all people.  His ideas often came out of moments of pure inspiration.  His imagination and creative capacity was such that he was able to envision how his inventions would work before he even drew any plans or diagrams.  This was possible because Tesla had developed both left-brain and right-brain thought modalities early in life, and continued to nurture both as he lived.

As part of the Nikola Tesla Energy Independence Celebrations, we wish to emphasize the importance of bridging the two seemingly separate worlds of Art and Science.  We feel that exploring the artistic and creative side of ourselves can be one of the best ways to inspire innovation.  Bringing the logical left-brain together with the intuitive, compassionate right-brain can also help us to keep in mind moral and ethical considerations when it comes to scientific and technological advancements.

To highlight this critical dynamic at our conference, we will be hosting a Tesla Art Show, which will showcase art pieces related to Tesla and his work.  Talented local artists have given their time and creative potential to create inspiring works, all of which will be on display on July 11th and 12th at Independence Mall Park Visitor’s Center at 5th & Market Streets.  After the conference, these art pieces will be sold at an online auction, open to the public.  Details regarding the art auction will be posted to the Nikola Tesla Inventors Club web site at www.nikolateslaclub.com

The Nikola Tesla Inventors Club would like to extend our sincere gratitude to all of the participating artists:
