Description
Presented by Prof. Richard DeMarco CBE, this is a one day exhibition and symposium relating to COP26, and considers how the DeMarco Gallery’s “Edinburgh Arts” contribution to the 1974 Edinburgh International Festival’s programme hosted the first global conference on the threat of climate change.
This involved politicians, environmentalists and “Edinburgh Arts” faculty and students. Among the speakers were two world-renowned artists/environmentalists – Joseph Beuys and Buckminster Fuller.
Join us for this unique event that should add a necessary “Beuysian” dimension to COP26.
