The symposium features T.J. Demos, an art historian, critic, and curator internationally recognized for his study of how artists and activists navigate global crises, including biopolitical conflicts around ecology, sustainability and climate change, who will give the keynote address. There will be additional presentations and conversations along with ambient art experiences will include Felice Grodin‘s Invasive Species; Laurencia Strauss‘s The Bubble Pops, an interactive installation that connects memory and possible futures; appearances of The Climate Crusader, AKA Alexander Zastera; and more.
