CONFERENCE: CLIMATE CRISIS AND CULTURAL LOSS
The conference marks the midway point of the titular three-year research project led by curator and educator Prof Ute Meta Bauer. Combining scientific findings with cultural and artistic practices, the project is a transdisciplinary effort to move beyond the one-directional perception of the science of climate change as the causal root of the planet’s most pressing “wicked problem”, attempting instead to assess the situation from the longer-term, more imperceptible, and difficult-to-quantify perspective of cultural loss.
