Lea Schick Comments on the role of art and the RETHINK exhibition

“Can art ask the questions? Can art give us some of the answers on, how we as humans have to change not to destroy the planet we inhabit?” (Adrian Hughes, TV-host at Smagsdommerne, TV-show at DR, Danish public broadcast) “The aesthetic can affect you and make you realize that there are something you have to relate and respond to anyway. Because that’s where we are now. We are in a place, where we have to learn to relate to climate change.” (Barbara Stephensen, guest at Smagsdommer… Continue

Lea Schick What is good climate art?

“Good climate art is art that takes on the challenge as an artistic challenge – not ‘merely’ enters the service of the climate discussion and communicates the results of science but at the same time discusses how the climate crisis challenges our culture, art and experience.” (Søren Pold) “While it is important that artists engage with environmentalism, it is vital that the sole professional responsibility of artists is to make good art that has integrity.” Good climate art should… Continue

Jan Tchamani The Red Tent (Heart of England)

Some of you might be interested to read about a new women's group of which I'm the lucky project director. I hope no-one will be offended by the idea of its being just for women - it comes from a very old therapeutic tradition.

Although The Red Tent (Heart of England) is unique, many similar groups and projects are springing up in other countries, all inspired by the novel "The Red Tent" by Anita Diam… Continue
