wall art depicting climate change

[Debra Javeline]

A slightly unusual request for suggestions: My department is finally getting around to putting up wall art, and professors are tending to choose provocative photos/art that reflect what they do (gender politics, electoral politics, etc.).  Can you suggest a particularly provocative image that makes passers-by ponder the climate crisis?  I think the department or college is footing the bill, so I can purchase something of high quality/good resolution.  I don’t want it to be cliché or expected.  Ideally, it would make someone stop, take a second look, and think, “gotta do my part and mobilize.”  Thanks!  --Debra

I'm not sure it's available as a print, but I typically show my students an image of Isaac Cordal's "Electoral Campaign Berlin," or "Follow the Leaders Berlin" (2011) known informally as "Politicians discussing global warming."

There was that amazing public art in Europe that showed famous works underwater.  Like this Mona Lisa--I saw it in Florence years ago.  Sorry I don't have more details but maybe someone else might...

Sounds like a lot of fun!

There was one of making the CO2 emissions visible… using I believe black balloons….

 

Another one who always had fun graphics was Stephen Schneider who unfortunately passed away too early..

 

I’m attaching a photo I took from one of his presentations, that I used to use in my own presentations with the heading of “The real cause of climate warming?”… humor sometimes speaks a thousand words…
