While continuing to engage the traditions of landscape painting, her increasingly abstract and large-scale images are layered with visual and scientific information about the urgent challenges posed to the planet. This volume presents Burko's large-scale paintings and serial groupings, including her never-before-exhibited, 56-foot-long \u003ci\u003eWorld Map\u003c\/i\u003e series, which addresses glacier and coral reef changes across the globe. Also featured are Burko's videos and \u003ci\u003eLenticulars\u003c\/i\u003e, which employ melting and flowing imagery to express the concept of climate change over time. The book features more than 120 color illustrations; a new statement by the artist on the evolving nature of her studio practice; essays by each of the curators, distinguished art historians Mary D. Garrard and Norma Broude; and an essay by the environmental author and activist Bill McKibben.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"American University Museum","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50863574122770,"sku":"9781734778830","price":28.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0831\/4771\/8930\/files\/img_d58bf884-ea6c-4288-a920-c58c39ac82a2.jpg?v=1737641544","url":"https:\/\/surprise-castle.myshopify.com\/products\/diane-burko-seeing-climate-change-9781734778830","provider":"Surprise Castle","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
