Rising Tide: The Arts and Ecological Ethics
Rising Tide: The Arts and Ecological Ethics is a national conference which will be held at the California College of the Arts and Stanford University on April 17, 18, 19th 2009. This conference is open to students, faculty and the public. The intent is to bring together environmental activists, scholars, artists, designers, and architects to examine the relationship of culture(s) to the environmental movement. For example: How is public policy determined by aesthetics?
How did the suburban lawn become the "norm" for communities? What can we do now in the face of climate change to influence public consciousness through design? What are artists now doing today to create works that respond to carbon futures trading? What are creative practioners doing to work with sustainable materials? Questions such as these will be discussed at this conference. For information: skimi2@comcast.net.
