Epilogue: The art of looking sideways 382 11.1 The eye of imagination 383 11.2 Science and art: second naiveté 391 11.3 A resurgence of the real? 399 Bibliography 402 The ordinary man, who lives with men, and sees Nature only in as far as she has refer- ence to himself, is seldom aware of this problematic and uncanny relationship. He sees the surface of things, which he and his like have created through the centuries, and likes to believe that the whole earth is concerned with him because a field can be cultivated, a forest thinned, a river made navigable. His eye focused almost entirely on men, sees Nature also, but incidentally, as something obvious and actual that must be exploited as much as possible. Children see Nature differently; solitary children in particular, who grow up amongst adults, foregather with her by a kind of like-mindedness and life within her, like the smaller animals, entirely at one with the happenings of forest and sky and in innocent, obvious harmony with them. But just because of this, there comes later for youth and maiden that lonely period filled with deep, trembling melancholy, when they feel unut- terably forlorn, just at the time of their physical maturing; when they feel that the things and events in Nature have no longer and their fellow men have not yet, any sympathy for them. Spring comes, even when they are sad, the roses bloom, and the nights are full of nightingales, even though they would like to die…. And, on the other hand, they see people, equally strange to them and unconcerned, with their business, their cares, their successes and joys, and they do not understand it. And finally, some of them make up their minds and join these people in order to share their work and their fate, to be use- ful, to be helpful ... whilst the others, unwilling to leave the Nature they have lost, go in pursuit of her and try now, consciously and by the use of their concentrated will, to come as near to her again as they were in their childhood without knowing it. It will be understood that the latter are artists: poets or painters, composers or architects, funda- mentally lonely spirits who, in turning to Nature, put the eternal above the transitory … and who, since they cannot persuade Nature to concern herself with them, see their task to be the understanding of Nature, so that they may take their place somewhere in her great design. And the whole of humanity comes nearer to Nature in these isolated and lonely ones. It is not the least and is, perhaps, the peculiar value of art, that it is the me- dium in which man and landscape, form and world, meet and find one another. Rainer Maria Rilke (1902/1965) Dedicated to Meri-Helga Mantere Abstract In today’s technological world, human intertwinement with the rest of nature has been severely diminished. In our digital culture, many people hardly have any direct experience of and sense of connection with “the real” of the natural world. The author assumes that when we want to find ways to mend this gap, arts-based environmental education (AEE) can play a meaningful role.

  • Eco-Art and Design Against the Anthropocene
    sustainability Article Making the Invisible Visible: Eco-Art and Design against the Anthropocene Carmela Cucuzzella Design and Computation Arts, Concordia University, Montreal, QC H3G 1M8, Canada; [email protected] Abstract: This paper examines a series of art and design installations in the public realm that aim to raise awareness or activate change regarding pressing ecological issues. Such works tend to place environmental responsibility on the shoulders of the individual citizen, aiming to educate but also to implicate them in the age of the Anthropocene. How and what these works aim to accomplish, are key to a better understanding the means of knowledge transfer and potential agents of change in the Anthropocene. We study three cases in this paper. These are examined through: (1) their potential to raise awareness or activate behavior change; (2) how well they are capable of making the catastrophic situations, which are invisible to most people, visible; and (3) how well they enable systemic change in the catastrophic situations. In the three cases studied, we find that they are successful in helping to raise awareness and even change individual behavior, they are successful in rendering the invisible visible, but they are incapable of engendering any systemic change of the catastrophic situations depicted.

  • Environmental & Ephemeral Art
    ART LESSONS at HOME week 1- *optional* enrichment Environmental & Ephemeral Art ~with Mrs. Hemmis This week we will be learning about environmental and ephemeral art. We will become familiar with 3 environmental artists. We will learn to identify and define the characteristics of environmental art. We will learn what it means for art to be ephemeral. We will create a work of environmental art using materials that we find in our environments. *Optional: We can create a memory of our work of art using sketching or photography. We will create an artist statement to describe the process of creating a work of art. What is environmental art? Environmental art is art that is created using materials from our environments (the surroundings in which we live). Traditionally, environmental art is created using materials like: sticks rocks ice mud leaves nuts/seeds earth flowers What does it mean for art to be ephemeral? It means that it is not designed or meant to last forever. It is meant to change or fade away. You may have already created ephemeral art. Have you ever made a sandcastle, snowperson, lego sculpture, block tower? Those are all examples of ephemeral art, because they don’t last forever. 3 Significant Environmental Artists to know: Robert Smithson Andrew Goldsworthy Maya Lin Andrew Goldsworthy Andy Goldsworthy was born the 26th of July 1956, in Cheshire, England. He lives and works in Scotland in a village called Penpont. ... Andy Goldsworthy produces artwork using natural materials (such as flowers, mud, ice, leaves, twigs, pebbles, boulders, snow, thorns, bark, grass and pine cones) Maya Lin Maya Ying Lin (born October 10, 1959) is a Chinese-American architect and artist.

  • Patricia Johanson, Dennis Oppenheim, and Athena Tacha, Who Had Started Executing Public Commissions for Large Urban Sites.” - Wikipedia DEFINITION
    INTRODUCTION SITE SPECIFIC INSTALLATION DEFINITION “Site-specific art is artwork created to exist in a certain place. Typically, the artist takes the location into account while planning and creating the artwork. The actual term was promoted and refined by Californian artist Robert Irwin, but it was actually first used in the mid-1970s by young sculptors, such as Patricia Johanson, Dennis Oppenheim, and Athena Tacha, who had started executing public commissions for large urban sites.” - Wikipedia DEFINITION Site-specific or Environmental art refers to an artist's intervention in a specific locale, creating a work that is integrated with its surroundings and that explores its relationship to the topography of its locale, whether indoors or out, urban, desert, marine, or otherwise. - Guggenheim Museum PATRICIA JOHANSON Johanson is an artist known for her large-scale art projects that create aesthetic and practical habitats for humans and wildlife. DENNIS OPPENHEIM Dennis Oppenheim was a conceptual artist, performance artist, earth artist, sculptor and photographer. DENNIS OPPENHEIM “LIGHT CHAMBER” DENVER JUSTICE CENTER ATHENA TACHA, PUTNAM COLLEGE Athena Tacha is best known in the fields of environmental public sculpture and conceptual art. She has also worked extensively in photography, film and artists’ books.

The means may include communication or visualization of scientific data about acute or ongoing environmental changes; provocative illustrations of human excess (e.g., large piles of trash) or environmental decline; or startling performances such as die-ins to represent species extinctions and loss of biological diversity.
