LONG BEACH.- The University Art Museum presents the exhibit Beyond Green: Toward a Sustainable Art through December 17, 2006. An exhibition that examines sustainable design and its potential to transform everyday life through an approach that balances environmental, social, and aesthetic concerns. This emerging strategy emphasizes the responsible and equitable use of resources and links environmental and social justice. The design philosophy resonates with the work of an emerging generation of international artists hailing from cities including Broooklyn, Chicago, Copenhagen, London, San Francisco, San Juan, and Vienna.
Beyond Green: Toward a Sustainable Art is a traveling exhibition co-organized by the Smartt Museum of Art, University of Chicago, and by iCI (Independent Curators International), New York, and circulated by iCI. The exhibition is curated by Stephanie Smith. The exhibition and accompanying catalogue are made possible in part by the Smart Family Foundation; the Horace W. Goldsmith Foundation; the Richard H. Driehaus Foundation; and iCI Exhibition Partners Kenneth S. Kuchin and F. Bruce Anderson, and Gerrit and Sydie Lansing. Additional support is provided by the Arts Planning Council, the Environmental Studies Program, and the Green Campus Initiative, University of Chicago.
Artists in the exhibition include Allora & Calzadilla; Free Soil (Amy Franceschini, Myriel Milicevic, Nis Rømer); JAM (Jane Palmer and Marianne Fairbanks); Learning Group (Brett Bloom, Julio Castro, Rikke Luther, and Cecelia Wendt); Brennan McGaffey with Temporary Services (Brett Bloom, Salem Collo-Julin, Marc Fischer); Nils Norman; People Powered; Dan Peterman; Marjetica.
