All Art is Ecological (Green Ideas)

Product Information

Bet iš tikrųjų aišku, kad Mortonui nelabai rūpi, kas tas tikras, kas netikras menas, daug labiau jis nori pasakyti, kad menas jau seniausiai yra išmokęs mus pagauti tą, ko niekad nepatyrėm ir nepatirsim, pajusti tą, kam žmogaus kūno galios per mažos/ per didelės/ per grubios, etc. In that sense, this book can also be read as a short introduction to Morton’s philosophy, which judging by his other books, provides solid theoretical foundations for a critical reflection on the contemporary human condition. Morton has written Hyposubjects: On Becoming Human (Open Humanities, 2021), All Art Is Ecological (Penguin, 2021), Spacecraft (Bloomsbury, 2021), Being Ecological (Penguin, 2018), Humankind: Solidarity with Nonhuman People (Verso, 2017), Dark Ecology: For a Logic of Future Coexistence (Columbia, 2016), Nothing: Three Inquiries in Buddhism (Chicago, 2015), Hyperobjects: Philosophy and Ecology after the End of the World (Minnesota, 2013), Realist Magic: Objects, Ontology, Causality (Open Humanities, 2013), The Ecological Thought (Harvard, 2010), Ecology without Nature (Harvard, 2007), 8 other books and 270 essays on philosophy, ecology, literature, music, art, architecture, design and food. That being said - I don’t feel that embracing these ideas without action is enough for surviving mass extinction, as the author seems to suggest. There are no “right” answers, and all conversations break down since any one approach will trivialize the problem and inevitably be wrong.

Started as one of my artist practices, CAP became also a cultural association based in Rome, that coordinated all the initiatives. Morton tears apart the ideologies of modern environmentalism in the climate crisis, adamant on a wider lens of ecology and the meaning of ‘nature’- almost akin to Jane Bennett. I don't know if either of them had the first clue about what they were talking about, but they both seemed to understand each other perfectly and be communicating on other levels. Quarks Daily started in 2004 with the idea of creating a curated retreat for everything intellectual on the web. And since no interpretation can ever completely capture what the work means, the temple sets up a struggle between earth and world.

Using plants and mushrooms as instruments, Waterflower creates a blend of experimental electronic music that speaks to the urgent need to protect and preserve our natural world. CAP builds a network of partners and relations to develop complex projects on vulnerable territories. mash-up of ideas and rubrics and constructs and tools for understanding (nah, it's inexplicable) and discussing how we think and talk about and address (or fail to address) the elephant in the room.

For sheer elegance, wit and worldly wisdom when it comes to reading, editing, presenting the real news of the world.This notion is of particularly significance to the development of my argument, because it criticises the mere visual representation of the globe as sphere. We are experiencing delays with deliveries to many countries, but in most cases local services have now resumed.
