The Routledge Companion on Climate Change and Visual Culture

This volume brings together leading and emerging voices in the fields of contemporary art, visual culture, activism, and climate change on an international scale. It addresses key questions such as why and how art and visual culture, along with their ethics and values, are relevant in a world increasingly affected by climate breakdown. Emphasizing a decolonial and climate-justice-based approach, the book aligns with efforts in the environmental humanities to expand considerations of climate change as it intersects with social, political, and cultural realms. It also contributes to the growth of ecocritical art history and visual culture, and aims to advance a robust and critical interdisciplinarity suited to the complexities of climate change. This book is particularly valuable to scholars and practitioners in the fields of contemporary art and visual culture, environmental studies, cultural geography, and political ecology.
