Published in conjunction with the exhibitions: Eco-Visionários, held April 10-October 8, 2018, at MAAT, Museu de Arte, Arquitetura e Tecnologia, Lisbon, Portugal ; Ekologins Visionärer, held June 15-October 21, 2018 at Bildmuseet, Umeå, Sweden; Eco-visionaries, held August 30-November 11, 2018 at HeK, Haus der electronischen Künste Basel, Switzerland; and Eco-Visionarios, held spring 2019 at LABoral Centro de Arte y Creación Industrial, Gijón, Spain.
Eco-Visionaries' presents contemporary positions in art and architecture seeking answers to current environmental problems that transcend mainstream notions of sustainability. This comprehensive volume is a companion to the collaborative 2018 exhibition endeavored by four participating European museums. Each show maintains a different focus and curatorial approach, and for each, artists investigate alternative visions regarding humankind's place on earth through video and sound works, paintings, and installations. While the series of exhibitions presents the works of artists and architects who offer critical reflections on pressing contemporary issues, the book unites research, essays, as well as a survey of the artworks.
