About this Event
"Speculative Semitropic" lecture by Nico King (PhD Candidate in Art History, Theory, and Criticism with an emphasis in Art Practice, interdisciplinary artist, researcher in modern landscape history, and a trained landscape designer)
Speculative Semitropic
Since the so-called Age of Discovery, California's natural and cultural landscapes have inhabited a space between mythical projection and capitalist realism. In her talk, Nico King explores how human-made natures have been envisioned and engineered in the garden in the twentieth century, reshaping Southern California’s geographic realities in the Anthropocene.
