“Climate Change” exhibition at Bozlu Art Project Nisantasi
Runs between 28th May – 16th August 2014
The impact of climatic fluctuations on humankind over the centuries have been one of the determinants of social fracture, new rituals, internal motion and change. Developments in their evolutionary process of nature or the result of manipulative climatic effects, could be thought as the key of prominent social changes. Floods, earthquakes, natural events such as drought or war, trade relations as well as political factors’s impact on people for centuries in a line extending from literature to plastic arts have been determinant of the changes and transformations, and led to the emergence of new art movements and ways of thinking. In all of these processes the corresponding artists express their ties directly or indirectly to the environment through art, and also “Climate Change” concept which has multifaceted meanings affects them as individuals and their subjective experiences of the assets located in the inner climate change.
