In the Balance: Art for a Changing World

In the Balance: Art for a Changing World was an environmental art exhibition held at the Museum of Contemporary Art in Sydney from August to October 2010. Featuring over 100 works by 30 artists, the show charted the history of engagement of the arts in Australian environmental activism as well as showcasing international and contemporary artists addressing a range of issues from waste, renewable energy, climate change denial, uranium mining and the ethics of food.

Tipping Point Australia

Tipping Point‘s unique brand of forum, which engages artists, scientists and others in dialogue about action on climate change has come to Australia from the UK. Three 2-day symposia in Melbourne, Sydney and Brisbane bring the best and the brightest together to generate multi-disciplinary project ideas and connections to get us out of the climate crisis. As an outcome of the events, Tipping Point is also running the Climate Commissions, as series of art and cultural works that will receive funding support for being carbon neutral or for addressing climate change concerns in our society.

Cross (x) Species Adventure Club

The Cross Species Adventure Club is an exploration of the complex inter-dependencies between ourselves and natural systems, experienced through art, ecological science and gastronomy. Natalie Jeremijenko, Mihir Desai (gastronomist superstar), Emilie Baltz of Fork & Design (design oversight), and other collaborators prepare a 5 course meal, cocktails and a take home each month in New York (and soon Boston and Washington DC) in the guise of a supper club that explores food webs, community structure, chemistry, nutrient cycles and the behavior of organisms.
