Rhonda Roland Shearer
Rhonda Roland Shearer is an American sculptor, scholar and journalist, who founded the nonprofit organization Art Science Research Laboratory〔(ASRL resume of Rhonda Roland Shearer )〕 with her late husband Stephen Jay Gould. The mission statement avows that the lab aims to "infuse intellectual rigor and critical thinking in disciplines that range from Academics to Journalism. ASRL researches conventional beliefs and misinformation and transmits its findings by means of scientific methods and state-of-the-art computer technologies."〔(Art Science Research Laboratory ), ''Homepage''〕〔(iMediaEthics minibio of Rhonda Roland Shearer )〕
==Sculpture==
As a sculptor, her work has been exhibited in New York, Los Angeles and London, as well as smaller cities throughout the United States. One of her works reflected her feminist principles by calling attention to the gender disparity in the public art that New York City commissions. Of the hundreds of monuments erected in the city, she emphasized, only three depict real women: Gertrude Stein, Eleanor Roosevelt and Joan of Arc. In the traveling museum exhibition catalogue, Shearer described her exhibition "Woman's Work" by writing, "I depicted large scale images of motherhood and housework in heroic size, as are our most sacred monuments."〔("The Impossible Measure of Dimness" ), ''StinkyJournalism.org〕 ''The New York Times'' profiled the exhibit in an article "Celebrating Heroines of Drudgery".〔("Celebrating Heroines of Drudgery" ), ''New York Times, March 11, 1993.〕
In 1996, she exhibited ''Shapes Of Nature, 10 Years Of Bronze Sculptures'' in The New York Botanical Garden, which experimented in the use of fractals as a new way to look at space and form. Whereas many mathematicians like Benoit Mandelbrot understood fractals in the form of computerized models of equations, others like Nathaniel Friedman and Shearer recognized that fractals are also found in nature. ''The Economist'' quoted her as saying, "For the artists, nothing is more fundamental."〔("Fractal Art" ), ''The Economist'', November 6, 1993.〕
Always fascinated by the intersection between science and art, Shearer exhibited ''Pangea''—inspired by chaos theory—in New York and Los Angeles from 1990-1991.
