This exhibition was originally at the Dr. Bernard Heller Museum, Hebrew Union College-Jewish Institute of Religion, New York. It includes the work of more than 60 artists working in many media, showing the fierce beauty of the natural world and what’s at stake. The works are both realistic and abstract, and include photographs, tapestry, cartoons, collages and paintings. Collectively, they sound an alarm to save the planet.
TERRA inFIRMA will be displayed online at TheBreman.org opening late-July 2020.
