Cindy Hron, ’87 BFA Fine Arts
Hron’s work is featured in the exhibition, The Nature of the Future: Artists Confront the Anthropocene, at the Leu Art Gallery in the Bunch Library at Belmont University in Nashville, Tennessee. Taking its title from Elizabeth Kolbert’s new book, Under the White Sky: The Nature of the Future, this exhibition features artists whose work addresses global warming and the changing composition of the natural world. These invite us to consider a “second nature” that humans have created, and they offer some insight into the precarious world in store for us as we enter a human-centered epoch that scientists and environmentalists are now calling the Anthropocene.
Other exhibiting artists include Vanessa Albury, Elijah Barrett, Brandon Bauer, Rachel Boillot, Diane Bronstein, Christine Carr, Patrick DeGuira, Brooks Dierdorff, Jenny Herrick, Stacey Kranitz, Colin Lyons, Manifest Data Lab, Ann Mansolino, Sarah Nance, Kelley O’Brien, Marat Paransky, Kaveer Rai, Tamara Reynolds, Lauren Ruiz, Solarpunk Surf Club, Debbie Symons, Russ Thompson, Kathleen Thum, and Kari Varner in addition to Cindi Hron.
The Nature of the Future is co-curated by three faculty members of the Watkins College of Art at Belmont University: Robin Paris, Christine Rogers, and Tom Williams, PhD. The exhibition runs through May 27, 2002. For more information, please visit cindihron.myportfolio.com.
