The Many Faces of Gaia’s Response-ability

Abstract

The Critical Zones project is a multipronged intervention toward what it calls earthly politics—transforming human engagement with Earth’s processes. The project centers on an exhibition at the ZKM Center for Art and Media Karlsruhe, Germany—an institution known for its experiments in culture-making at the intersection of art, science, and politics. French academic Bruno Latour has long collaborated with the ZKM and its director, Peter Weibel. Critical Zones is their most recent collaboration, co-curated with Bettina Korintenberg and Martin Guinard.
