What is the role of the arts in the global environmental crisisHelen Mayer Harrison and Newton Harrison known as the Harrisons dedicated five decades to exploring and demonstrating a new approach to artistic practice centred on ampampquotdoing no work that does not attend to the wellbeing of the web of life.ampampquot Their collaborative practice pioneered a way of drawing together art and ecology. They closely observed often with irony and humour how human intervention disrupts the dynamics of life as a web of interrelationships. The authors of this book think with the Harrisons critically tracing their poetics as a reimaging and reconfiguring of the arts in response to the unfolding planetary crisis.
