Home > Events > Contemporary Art > Beyond Green: Toward a Sustainable Art

This traveling exhibition features the work of thirteen artists and artists’ groups including Allora & Calzadilla, Free Soil, JAM, Learning Group, Brennan McGaffey with Temporary Services, Nils Norman, People Powered, Dan Peterman, Marjetica Potrc, Michael Rakowitz, Frances Whitehead, WochenKlauser and Andrea Zittel.

The exhibit explores such questions as: What is “green living?" How do we live in a truly sustainable way? and Why does it matter? Beyond Green also addresses the ways in which sustainable design philosophy resonates in the work of an emerging generation of international artists hailing from cities in the United States and Europe, including Brooklyn, Chicago, San Francisco, Copenhagen, London, San Juan and Vienna. Some adopt proven principles of “green” design; others propose small-scale alternative modes of living. Still others highlight the problems and contradictions in the very nature of sustainability.
