The first exhibition to culminate the work of diverse artists whose work presents inspiring solutions for our ever-changing planet. The exhibiton is one fantastical landscape and inspiring from start to finish.
My favourite pieces:
Tue Greenfort's "traps": Daimlerstrasse (mixed media)-2001
-Three makeshift traps, each containing a camera. At the other end of the camera's flex is a frankfurter. As an urban fox tucks into the bait it presses the trigger and a photograph is generated.
Agnes Denes' Wheatfield-A confrontation. (Prints)
-Denes planted and harvested two acres of wheat in battery park landfill in Manhatten in the summer of 1982. The landfill is situated in New York's financial district, a block from Wall Street and the area where the World Trade Centre stood. The area of land was worth $4.5 billion. the harvested grain then travelled to 28 cities worldwide in "The International Art Show for the End of World Hunger" and was symbolically planted around the world.
Heather and Ivan Morison- "I am sorry. Goodbye"- 2008
-Double-domed pavilion based on the structures found in utopian communities in the West Coast of US in the 1970s.
