Event Description |
The Harrisons describe their first Future Garden, the Garden of Hot Winds and Warm Rains (1995), proposed for a museum in Bonn as “...a multi-layered story told with artifacts, media events, texts, and living materials, which all together engage the probable Greenhouse future directly. It is a work of art that will be garden, prediction, and promenade, a voyage of sorts... The task we set for this work is the exploration of eco-cultural collaborations that would make for a future no longer based on extraction. ... these gardens look at what a future could be like if conscious, mutually beneficial collaborations between human cultures (civilizations in all their complexities) and the cultures of nature (the life webs complicating and diversifying up to the space and energy available) became a norm.”
Join us for a panel discussion with people who have collaborated with the Harrisons on Future Gardens including current on the ground proposals. |
