A Hopeful Art Exhibit on Climate Change

Three of the 30 artists from around the world in the Nasher Museum of Art's exhibit, "Spirit in the Land," express ecological concerns from their unique cultural perspectives. The exhibit is running for two more weeks.

“The exhibition is ultimately about finding ourselves in nature,” says curator Trevor Schoonmaker, director of the Nasher. “It's a hopeful show and one that, despite the dire environmental crisis, demonstrates that nature actually provides a lot of the answers and has the capacity to heal... if we'll just care for it as we should.”

An example of how the arts at Duke are participating in the Duke Climate Commitment, "Spirit in the Land" runs through July 9, at the Nasher Museum of Art at Duke University.
