Climate Arts in the Pandemic

Climate Arts in the Pandemic: A Conversation with Gabriela Salazar and Una Chaudhuri, was a free, online program exploring art, community, and resilience. This program discussed Gabriela Salazar’s sculptural installation entitled Low Relief for High Water, which was commissioned by the Climate Museum. Gabriela Salazar and Una Chaudhuri explored personal and community resilience and examined the ways in which art focused on the climate crisis has gathered freight in the time of COVID-19. The program included a screening of a short film about Salazar’s work, followed by an interactive conversation moderated by Climate Museum director Miranda Massie with a distinguished panel including:

  • Gabriela Salazar, Artist

  • Una Chaudhuri, Climate arts expert; NYU Professor of English, Drama, and Environmental Studies; and Director of NYU's Graduate Program XE: Experimental Humanities and Social Engagement

  • Micah Fink, Filmmaker and Professor of Social Documentary at the School of Visual Arts

  • Anais Reyes, Exhibitions Associate at the Climate Museum

The project was made possible in part with support from the Rockefeller Brothers Fund.
