Green­meme
Fri­day, August 14, 2009 @ Noon
Free Admis­sion
Freya Bardell and Brian Howe of the Los Angeles-based design stu­dio Green­meme will dis­cuss a vari­ety of their projects. Their cross-disciplinary col­lec­tive has worked to bridge artis­tic and sci­en­tific dis­ci­plines to pro­duce pub­lic art, archi­tec­ture, land­scape and eco­log­i­cal design projects, which seek to raise aware­ness of the cul­tural and envi­ron­men­tal con­di­tions around them. Using sci­ence, form, his­tory, story-telling and myth, they have cre­ated a series of site-specific works which are play­ful and edu­ca­tional inter­pre­ta­tions of their sur­round­ings. Come join our dis­cus­sion on River Liv­ers, Matryoshka dolls and how to har­ness the power of Grandmothers!
