An Earth Twin At The Digital Dawn: Tom Van Sant’s Geosphere Project
Part of the Getty’s PST ART: Art and Science Collide, this exhibition explores artist Tom Van Sant’s Geosphere project, a groundbreaking work of art, science, and technology representing the acme of Van Sant’s dedication to the natural world, materials innovation, and public service. Providing the first border-free global map for scientists, activists, and decision-makers to visualize the unity of Earth's ecosystems and the effects of resource management on global warming, the exhibition creates a call to action to Vote for the Planet in an election year where issues of climate change are on the ballot.
