Course Description

This Lecture Course is the 7th in an annual series, “The Arts in Context,” each of which offers a broad investigation into the relationship between multiple art forms and a context, in this case, The Environment. With our complicated human relationship to water as a key focal point, this course will challenge scientists and artists, architects and engineers and others to re-think how we and our artists relate to the Environment.
