Critical Zones Open Call
“Critical Zones. In Search of a Common Ground is a traveling exhibition that invites visitors to engage with the critical situation of the Earth in a novel and diverse way, and to explore new modes of coexistence between all forms of life. It invokes the ongoing climate emergency as a result of planet wide global warming, not to create a state of despair and lamentation, but to act as a catalyst for thoughtful, creative and imaginative responses through artistic practice, cultural action and critical inquiry. The exhibition features the work of leading international contemporary artists whose work provides stimulating, provocative and thoughtful ways into thinking with the climate question.
