Abstract
The Environment 2.0 Art Exhibition includes artworks that make visible and tangible the outcomes of our actions at a local level, artworks conceived as social interventions, and artworks which arise out of a sustained engagement and dialogue between artists and scientists.
In urban environments in particular we can be insulated from both nature and the consequences of our actions as surely as the tarmac of the road cuts us off from the earth beneath.
Futuresonic 2009 this year seeks to open an original engagement in the environment, with projects which aim to provoke and inspire. Artists here avoid cliches and address environmental sustainability in ways both forceful and irreverent.
