Summary: | The exhibition represents a critical view on the problem of environmental protection today through 53 work from 17 artists from all over the world, who use photography, installation, video and art-object as tools to establish different channels of identification between human beings and their natural environment. The exhibition is divided into two blocks. The first covers the relationship between man and animals. This section includes works by artists such as Catherine Bagnall (New Zeeland), Miguel Calderón (Mexico), Charles Fréger (France). The second block is about the relationship with the environment and the landscape and includes works by the British collective Wayward Plants (includes designers, artists and urban developers). Other pieces on display were concentrated in the environmental devastation caused by the massive and runaway growth of human residential areas such as the works of Alejandro Cartagena (Mexico), Joel Sternfeld (Nueva York, USA) and Rodrigo Imaz (Mexico) among others. |
