Winds of Change: A Conversation on Art and Our Changing Climate
A conversation on relationships to the land past, present, and future, exploring the implications of global environmental crises
Weathervanes are indicators of the wind’s direction, designed to enliven the skyline and help predict what the weather will be. As weather patterns become increasingly erratic and extreme due to our warming climate, they become ever more difficult to predict and prepare for.
This interdisciplinary conversation, inspired by current exhibition American Weathervanes, brings together scholars, artists, activists, and a policymaker for an intersectional dialogue around art and environmentalism. Through the varied lenses of those who study, depict, and work in nature, this conversation will explore relationships to the land past, present, and future, consider the implications of global environmental crises and share strategies for sustainability and visions for the future.
