Maggiori informazioni sul libro

The concepts of sustainability and sustainable development in political, economic, and ecological discussions highlight the need for global responsibility rather than unchecked exploitation of our planet. Sustainable art emerges as a form of social activism, encompassing a range of ideas beyond aesthetic guidelines, including ecological concerns, recycling, energy exchange, historical awareness, and political reforms following colonial oppression. This diverse array of concepts fosters new artistic practices. Sustainable art serves as a response to the symbolic violence of modernism, which enforced rigid divisions and celebrated individual genius, often justifying the elimination of what was deemed inferior or outdated. In contrast, sustainable art emphasizes care, responsibility, and harmony, advocating for empathy towards all forms of life and embracing diversity. By shifting focus from the notion of the solitary genius to community and collective action, the art world raises critical questions: Is sustainable art merely wishful thinking, an idealistic endeavor, a pretentious initiative, or an essential response to contemporary challenges?
