We are announcing that the inaugural eARTh exhibition will be open for viewing on May 17th, 2021. As you explore the exhibition, we hope that the intersection between the sciences and the arts yields new realizations about the way you, the viewer, think about human activities and our changing climate.<\/p>\n

Call for art (click to enlarge)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

On April 23rd, we sent out a call to the student body for art that responded to a prompt about human\u2019s relationship to the environment (image right). With an eye to COVID-19 and the current state of the campus, we decided to make the first exhibition hybrid in order to be able to accept art from off-campus students and share the complete show with the whole community.<\/p>\n

Opening May 17th, the Bowdoin community can view the virtual exhibition through this platform. From May 17th through May 21st, Bowdoin students on campus can view select pieces in the Roux Center.<\/p>\n

Students responded to our call and brought their own relationship with the Earth into the exhibition. For some students, art was a way to process the varying emotions\u2014fear, confusion, anger \u2014we feel about climate change. For others, art was a way to express appreciation for nature. Art was also a tool for activism. Their work brings the viewer into the discussion of climate change and asks the audience to consider our individual impact on the Earth. Artists used composition, repetition, natural materials, manmade materials, and more to communicate the severity of climate change.<\/p>\n

We have given you two ways to explore the exhibition. The \u201cgallery\u201d page is space to experience the artwork in a curated order. The \u201cartist statement\u201d page focuses on the artist\u2019s responses to the prompts.<\/p>\n

Enjoy exploring the exhibition and thank you for visiting! We hope to continue the exhibition in future years when we\u2019ll be able to bring everyone into the Roux Center to appreciate art together.<\/p>\n

Best,<\/p>\n
