I am very excited to attend this site specific environmental art installation this Spring 2018!
"In May, 2018, the Institute of the Arts and Sciences (IAS) launches a major site-specific environmental art installation by Newton and Helen Mayer Harrison at the UC Santa Cruz Arboretum and Botanic Garden."
"A Future Garden for the Central Coast of California," is the Harrisons' first multi-year, publicly accessible, site-specific ecological installation in the United States. Combining plant science, environmental studies, and landscape design, Future Garden will occupy three historic geodesic domes in the Arboretum and the surrounding landscape to explore the impact of climate change on the Central California coast.
"Future Garden" will provide a tangible example of how people can, to use the Harrisons’ words, “take responsibility for a deeply stressed planet” and create a future in the face of unfolding environmental crises. As IAS director John Weber says, “"Future Garden" will elegantly and provocatively model the need for creative strategies in the struggle against the central existential threat of our time, global warming."
