Utopian Scenario About Nature Group Exhibition
DATES | 2 September 2023 - 1 January 2024
VENUE | Museum of Contemporary Art Busan, Busan, Korea
LINKS | MoCA Busan
With the full-scale emergence of the climate crisis, and these new changes in modes of capitalism, promoting environmentally friendly policies across politics, economics, society, and culture, and a reorganization driven by the aestheticization of nature, Utopian Scenario about Nature was conceived to question what “environmentally friendly” really should mean and find answers in contemporary art. This is, after all, in an era in which economists pursue ecological and degrowth theories as alternatives, seeking to move away from mainstream economics focused on growth, and political sociologists demand comprehensive systemic transition requiring changes to the fundamentals of capitalist life, nonetheless a question for contemporary art: “What should contemporary art produce?” Or, in other words, “How should the role of contemporary art and its methods of artistic production change in the era of climate crisis?”
