On the fifty-first Earth Day (this past Thursday), two of my classes premiered a virtual exhibition of environmentally themed art. Called “Intimations: Eco-Artistic Glimpses Through the Fog of an Unwinding Pandemic<\/a>,” the exhibition features several dozen works in a multitude of media including paintings and drawings, digital images, collages, narrative poetry and haiku, 3-D works (displayed in 2-D, but sometimes creatively), and audio and video pieces. (I recommend giving the videos their full viewing time, with the sound turned up.) <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The exhibition is co-hosted by the undergraduate “Environmental Literature, Arts, and Media<\/a>” class, the undergraduate\/graduate “Advanced Environmental Humanities<\/a>” class, and EcoCultureLab<\/a>. (Note that with one or two exceptions, the students are not studio art students; almost all are Environmental Studies majors. Some are being challenged to “make art” for the first time in their university career.) <\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can view the walk-through exhibition here<\/a> or start from the launch page<\/a>, then return to it after viewing the exhibition so that you can vote<\/a> for your favorite artworks and provide any other comments<\/a> you may have. The exhibition will be up for at least a few weeks. We plan to announce the \u201cPeople\u2019s Choice\u201d awards on May 1, so vote before then. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
