** The Power of Imagination
------------------------------------------------------------

**
Bringing together artists & thinkers to discuss the climate emergency - with Brian Eno, Rob Hopkins, Carolina Caycedo & Kostas Stasinopoulos.

What can artists offer in response to climate change? The experience of the pandemic has shown us that a profound reimagining of many aspects of society is entirely possible. In what ways can we rethink our relationship to the environment? How can we effect change with our every action? Join us to hear from artists and thinkers delivering an urgent and innovative response to the climate emergency.

Back to Earth, the Serpentine’s major environmental programme is a multi-year initiative which invites leading artists, architects, poets, filmmakers, scientists, thinkers and designers to devise campaigns, protocols and initiatives to respond to the environmental crisis.

The first Back to Earth publication, 140 Artists’ Ideas for Planet Earth, edited by Serpentine Artistic Director Hans Ulrich Obrist together with Kostas Stasinopoulos, represents the exhibition of these ideas in book form, a unique compendium of recipes, sketches, photographs, texts, actions and instructions from some of the most creative minds of our generation to Remember Nature and help us all build a fairer and more sustainable future.

This unmissable event brings together artists and thinkers to share their ideas around ecological challenges and to talk about collaboration and interconnectedness across disciplines as we look ahead and imagine the future in the next 50 or 500 years.
