FOREST FOR TREES “WHAT IS ENVIRONMENTAL ART” + ARTIST TALK

​🗓️ Join us for our opening exhibition, "What is Environmental Art?" on Saturday May 18th in the Climate Imaginarium Residency on Governors Island!

​⏰ We’re open from 12-5PM, with an artist talk from 1-2PM.

​🌱 Our title is intentionally open-ended so artists (and visitors) might challenge and expand our relationship to environmental art. Is it pastoral? Is it doomsday? Can it be pop/punk/smart/funny? What is environmental art's relationship to space and place and community? For this show, we celebrate bright colors, transcorporeality, and multi-media responses. 

​✨ We are so honored to showcase creative luminaries in our collective: Edgar Fabián Frías, 4KINSHIP, Josh Tafoya, Disengineering Society, Meaghan Elyse, Magali Wilensky, and Ana Anu

​⛴️ Governors Island is just a five minute ferry from Brooklyn's Red Hook Atlantic Basin, Pier 6 Brooklyn Bridge Park or Manhattan's Battery Maritime Building. It's a hub for the arts in New York City and a breath of fresh air away from the city hustle. We couldn't be more thrilled to be growing with Governors Island.

​💞 When you come, be sure to check out the incredible consortium of environmental arts organizations we get to program alongside.
