Indepth Arts News: "Managing Eden" 2003-08-16 until 2003-10-12 Center for Photography at Woodstock Woodstock, NY, USA United States of America
The artists presented in Managing Eden shed light on the complexity of environmental "intervention", stewardship, and detachment. Addressing a broad spectrum of environmental concerns, including animal habitat management, land preservation, mineral mining, pollution, natural disasters, genetically altered foods, and our personal and spiritual connections to the land we inhabit, they provide the viewer an opportunity to consider our own engagement with the word we live in. The title was inspired by the important work of one of the featured artists - Joann Brennan - whose work examines the many sides of habitat management, scientific experiment, conservation research, and the debate between intervention and wildness. And rather than simplify the issues she boldly begins by questioning our own assumptions..."Is the hunter a villain? Is the biologist a saint?"
