This exhibition of abandoned cities around the world subsequently travelled to the CPG in February and March 2019. For OSMOSCOSMOS, Sailer presents images from The Mars Series made in theEuropean Space Agency’s Restricted Research Areas, where Martian landscapes were constructed for simulations in preparation forthe 2020 Mars Expedition.
