This unique exhibition brings together recent works by artists who have been collaborating for years under the mentorship of renowned art duo Rose Shakinovsky and Claire Gavronsky, also known as rosenclaire. The exhibition addresses the urgent need for environmental consciousness and action. The show reflects on the interconnected survival of our planet and its inhabitants. Some works confront the viewer with the stark realities of the climate emergency, while others offer pathways toward healing and encourage a shift in perspective as a way forward. The title, Alert & Attuned, embodies this dual approach of awareness and active engagement.

“In the spirit of collective perspectives and respect for our ancestors, these artistic expressions are interdependent rather than individualistic,” say the curators. “We have developed this exhibit in partnership with our planet, carefully considering carbon impact factors such as shipping, printing or recreating certain works onsite, and post-exhibit waste reduction. These choices support sustainability while organizing contributions from national and international artists.”

The exhibit features art by Adie Russell, ai 43368, Amanda Engels, Amey Mathews, Briele Hansen, Bridget Rountree, Cathrine Raben Davison, Coral Woodbury, Dana Suzanne Dirker, Diane Jacobs, Fletcher Boote, Haley Mellin, Jana Harper, Jessica Houston, Katie Roberts, Kiran Chandra, Kirsten Stromberg, Laura Mack, Lisa Knoop, Marcia Teusink, Melissa Morris, Nicola Bailey, Regan Wheat, Sarah McDowell, Tanya Gill, Tereza Swanda, Tracy Grubbs, and Tracie Lee.
