Artists Need to Create on the Same Scale that Society Has the Capacity to Destroy: Mare Nostrum
Promoter: The Brooklyn Rail
Artists Need to Create on the Same Scale that Society Has the Capacity to Destroy: Mare Nostrum features 73 artists of international backgrounds whose works are in response to environmental crisis in the age of climate change.
Inspired by Lauren Bon’s neon work—from which this exhibition draws its title—the Brooklyn Rail is organizing, in conjunction with the show, an interdisciplinary program titled 1001 Stories for Survival, which will include free public conversations with artists, scientists, and writers, musical performances, and poetry readings. The exhibition and the progrmaming are co-curated by Phong Bui and Francesca Pietropaolo.
