Unsettling Matter, Gaining Ground, Carnegie Museum of Art is hosting a two-day public program taking place throughout the museum. From October 5–6, 2023, all are invited to participate in this free event inspired by the artists and artworks in the exhibition. Architects, activists, scientists, and practitioners across disciplines will gather to discuss and expand on themes posed by Unsettling Matter, Gaining Ground.
This exhibit brings together historical artworks from the museum’s collection alongside contemporary projects and new commissions to narrate the complex stories of how fossil fuel economies have been produced and upheld; whom they have excluded and left vulnerable; and how they have shaped and disrupted cities, communities, and ecologies.
So come join us for one of the many tours, conversations, panels and more this Thursday and Friday at Carnegie Museum of Art for a global climate experience!
