# Diane Burko: Seeing Climate Change - Hardcover

by **Diane Burko** (Artist), **Jack Rasmussen** (Foreword by), **Bill McKibben** (Text by (Art/Photo Books))

**Burko's scientifically informed abstractions extend the Romantic sublime to the era of climate catastrophe**

Painter, photographer and climate activist Diane Burko (born 1945) has long been a prominent advocate for art's role in addressing climate change. 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 _World Map_ series, which addresses glacier and coral reef changes across the globe. Also featured are Burko's videos and _Lenticulars_, 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.
