City of Seattle Green Arts panel-Green Art: What Does "Sustainable Design" Mean in Public Art? November 10, 2008

Sustainability is the buzzword of the moment, but what does it mean when applied to public art? Gain insights into "green" art at a free workshop, "Green Art: What Does 'Sustainable Design' Mean in Public Art?" A panel including environmental artist Gregory Glynn, public artists Lorna Jordan and Nicole Kistler, and landscape architect Karen Janosky will share their approaches to making "green" projects. They will exchange ideas about how public art can embrace sustainable design practices. The panelists will also discuss varied artistic approaches, from action-oriented environmentally themed works to artwork that actually serves an ecological purpose, as well as green building practices.
