Description: "Mankind's relationship with nature is subject to continual change. But never before in our planet's history have the changes caused by mankind's impact on nature had such far-reaching repercussions as they do today. The exhibition has taken twenty-five artistic positions by international and Austrian artists working in the medium of photography and video to examine the way in which our relationship with nature is currently reflected from an artistic point of view. They address the theme of nature and the ways of representing and depicting nature against the backdrop of the Anthropocene, the first epoch in the Earth's history to be shaped by mankind's impact"--Publisher's website.
Notes: Catalogue published on the occasion of an exhibition of the same name, held at the Kunst Haus Wien September 13, 2017-February 18, 2018.
