Viewpoints: Art and the Anthropocene
July 11, 2018 @ 6:00 am - 7:00 am
FREESummerFest viewpoint series presents Erika Osborne, Assistant Professor of Art, CSU
Program: We have entered the Anthropocene—a new geologic epoch characterized by the overwhelming evidence that humans are affecting the world’s ecosystems, geology, and climate in unprecedented ways. This new epoch comes with a myriad of challenges for our globalized world, especially climate change and the environmental degradation it brings. As sirens of social, environmental, and political injustices, artists are rising to the cause. In this richly illustrated talk Erika Osborne will introduce us to the contemporary art that is responding to these new conditions and proposing solutions to some of our problems.
