NERART EVENTIIl conto alla rovescia è quasi finito. Tra meno di un mese le due opere di Cyprien Tokoudagba commissionate espressamente per questo evento verranno esposte al Te Papa Natural Museum di Wellington per la cerimonia ufficiale della giornata dell'ambiente.
In honour of the annual United Nations World Environment Day (WED) celebrations on 5 June, the Natural World Museum and Te Papa are pleased to present Moving Towards a Balanced Earth: Kick the Carbon Habit in partnership with the United Nations Environmental Programme (UNEP), the Ministry for the Environment, and the New Zealand Government.
This contemporary art exhibition of works by leading artists from around the world aims to generate awareness of global climate change, with an emphasis on moving towards a low carbon economy.
The artists were asked to find new ways to articulate the Earth in balance, and explore new visions and choices for a sustainable world.
The exhibition was curated by Randy Jayne Rosenberg of the Natural World Museum and features an evocative mix of painting, sculpture, photography, multimedia, and installation. Artworks include a startling video projection of environmental devastation by Susan Norrie of Australia, dream-like desert imagery by Bill Viola of the USA, assemblage by Mounir Fatmi of Morocco, an ‘existential slapstick’ video trilogy by Lars Siltberg of Sweden, and digital prints by Russian artists Ilya and Emilia Kabakov. New Zealand features with Alison Clouston, and lithographs by Bill Culbert and Ralph Hotere.
This is an exciting and rare opportunity to see global, multimedia artworks that will expand your perceptions about the environment.
