Synopsis
This exhibition includes three featured tours and 28 artist galleries that explore the issues of overconsumption, environmental degradation, and ecosystem conservation.
There are so many wonderful artist galleries, and each one is unique.
Additional Prerequisites
There are two main ways to explore this exhibition: featured tours and artist galleries.
There are five icons for exploring the artist galleries: delve, learn, interpret, reflect, and act. The icons help guide you as you scroll through each art gallery.
The bottom of each artist gallery features pledge boxes that you can check to show your commitment to taking care of the Earth.
Differentiation
Art students could choose one artist to study. Students could research the artist's motivation and background and analyze one of their pieces.
The pledges in the Act section of each artist's page are simple steps students can take to reduce their environmental impact. Students can select one or more of these actions to implement in their lives and track their progress over time.
Art Works for Change is a nonprofit organization that creates contemporary art exhibitions and storytelling projects to address critical social and environmental issues.
