Green Modernism
Runs: 13.04.2007 to 26.05.2007
Green Modernism will provide an in-depth exploration into the future of sustainable living. As part of the renowned Look ’07 photography festival, CUBE presents an exhibition by British artist David Spero entitled Settlements in GALLERY 1. Visually documenting some of the most innovative and extreme examples of sustainable living in the UK, Spero presents us with an exciting collection of photographs tracing self-built dwellings of communities who have chosen to live off the land in a sustainable way. GALLERY 2 will feature a sensory installation and using sound bytes taken from interviews with environmentalists, academics and members of the public CUBE hopes to foreground current debates on the future of sustainable living. GALLERY 3 will host the interactive part of the exhibition and CUBE invites members of the public to contribute their thoughts on the debates raised via a feedback wall and an online “blogspot”. This section of the exhibition will also include case studies of local and international pioneering sustainable developments. We are now at a time when it is important to suggest ecologically friendly ways of living as the effects of climate change are felt with increasing force. CUBE intends to confront this powerful issue by showcasing alternative and greener modes of existence. PRIVATE VIEW FRIDAY 13th April 2007 5.30pm – 8.00 pm.
