Shifting Perspectives on Environmental Crisis

Shifting Perspectives on Environmental Crisis is a curricular exhibition designed to engage students in the new interdisciplinary minor in Creative Expression and the Environment at Rutgers University. Using a variety of media (painting, drawing, photography, sculpture, and collage), the works on view provoke questions about one’s relationship with the environment, both human and non-human, natural and built. The idea of environment is elastic in these objects, encompassing an acute awareness of natural phenomena and social histories.

Generous support for bilingual text was provided by Art Bridges Foundation’s Access for All program.

Text reading "Art Bridges Foundation" with a purple arch connecting the words.
