Going to the beach. Lioba v.d. Driesch. Berlin, 2020, exhibition “Climate change to go”
Exhibition
The climate crisis is the biggest challenge of our time – and yet many people feel powerless and cannot be reached for change. How can we address the issue of global warming without overwhelming people? How can we reach them, touch them and motivate them to act? By not only pointing out the problems, but also telling stories that give hope and presenting concrete ways in which everyone can make a contribution.
Climate communication is key to shaping change. It should motivate people to act, engage them and win over old and new target groups for climate protection. Art offers the opportunity to communicate complex issues such as the climate crisis in a way that words alone cannot. It creates images that touch, encounters that inspire and spaces that encourage reflection and action. Thanks to its freedom and diversity, it can reach people on an emotional level and win them over to action against the climate crisis.
We are planning an exhibition on the theme and are inviting artists to submit their proposals in a worldwide call for entries. We would like to see works that address this issue and conserve resources in terms of transportation and materials.
We will jury them as a team and show them in our rooms.
