Green is in art
Green Platform takes a complex critical view designed to examine at stake in an interdisciplinary fashion the issue of the environment in the dual sense of a crisis in our thermo-industrial society based on non-renewable sources of energy and of an ecological crisis caused by pollution and by the worrying overheating of our planet.
The environment theme is quite in fashion, and here is a new version: artists from various horizons have developed their creations based on this theme in an area bathed in artificial light. There is Amy Balkin, who bought a piece of land along the California highway to turn it into an international ecologic area; Lucy and Jorge Orta, who created an installation on water, as well as Michele Dantini, whose study subject is the pipeline in Chad and wrote a real-false diary. These artists who are active in this register are very close to politics. They tackle questions directly, such as the exhaustion of resources, global warming or the loss of biodiversity.
