On 16 February the «Warm, warmer still?» photo exhibition to be opened in Perm Central Exhibition Hall
The effects of climate change are becoming more and more acutely felt throughout the world. Addressing this problem is a key issue in international dialogue at all levels. The «Warm, warmer still?» exhibition showcases the stark reality of climate change through photography.
The exhibition features works by professionals as well as by amateurs, winners of the January 2009 photo competition organised by the British Embassy in Moscow and National Geographic Russia.
The exhibition project was launched on 12 March 2009 in the Winzavod Moscow Contemporary Art Centre by the British Embassy in Russia. It travels to key cultural centres in Russia, including St. Petersburg, Yekaterinburg, PERM and other Russian cities.
The exhibition will become an open platform for discussion and sharing views on climate change. It represents a new look at the issue of climate change, new media of expression, new questions and, possibly, new answers. We hope that our audience will learn more about climate and changing perceptions in public opinion, economy, science, and creative industries.
The exhibition will provide a forum for professional and scientific dialog, photography workshops, and cross-disciplinary open dialogue.
«Warm, warmer still?» photo-exhibition is all about free exchange of ideas, creativity and professional development.
Organisers: British Embassy in Moscow, British Consulate General in Yekaterinburg, with support of Perm city Administration.
