Art and Climate Change Maja and Reuben Fowkes provide a concise introduction to the disciplines of environmental art, ecological art, climate art, and activism. This book presents an overview of contemporary art that addresses the climate crisis and creates urgency for collective engagement with the Earth.
In five chapters, the authors analyze how artists respond to the consequences of the Anthropocene, including damage to natural areas and the impact of extraction. They also highlight the voices of marginalized communities, which suffer disproportionately from climate change. Art and Climate Change connects art and climate in a way that is both insightful and engaged.
