Artist Lecture: Diane Burko, Unprecedented: Before and After
Artist-activist Diane Burko has traveled the globe in search of evidence of humankind’s impact on the natural world. In her monumental painting currently on view in MADE IN PA, Burko bears witness to the unprecedented convergence of global crises—the COVID pandemic, climate change, and sociopolitical unrest—since 2020. Burko will share “before and after” insights about her career, her ongoing engagement with climate scientists and environmentalists, and the “unprecedented” moment we find ourselves living in.
