New Landscapes: Contemporary Responses to Globalization, Hood Museum of Art, June 15–August 18, 2019

Humanity's unceasing consumption and development has had complex repercussions on the physical, social-cultural, and political landscapes around the world. Artists are actively engaging with the consequences of our impacts on the landscape and, in response, considering alternative realities—from imagining a transformed landscape or a dystopic future in the wake of ecological disaster to creating new worlds to escape the effects of industrialization. New Landscapes comprised of recent acquisitions that reflected on the diversity of experiences in, responses to, and projections of our many lived and potential realities.
