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 \u003ci\u003eWorld Map\u003c\/i\u003e series, which addresses glacier and coral reef changes across the globe. Also featured are Burko's videos and \u003ci\u003eLenticulars\u003c\/i\u003e, 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Diane Burko\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1734778830\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781734778830\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e American University Museum\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/01\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 116\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.05lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.90h x 11.70w x 0.60d","brand":"Diane Burko","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44050051367167,"sku":"9781734778830","price":40.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_06edbc63-b398-4b9d-aadc-1ceca41ecc1f.jpg?v=1685004923","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/diane-burko-diane-burko-9781734778830","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
