The emotive title ‘Green New Deal’ draws on the groundbreaking policy, offering a positive outlook and a forward-thinking framework for the future. In the same vein, this selection of works by artists Florian Baudrexel, Stephan Baumkötter, Adam Barker-Mill, Henrik Eiben, Mike Meiré, David Murphy, Ignacio Uriarte, Winston Roeth and Beat Zoderer offers a comprehensive overview of contemporary art practice: the works in this showcase all incorporate a green colour palette.
Environmental themes inform many of the artist’s oeuvre, ranging from Florian Baudrexel's conscious choice of materials to Mike Meiré’s thematic explorations to Adam Barker-Mill’s engagement with organic farming and soil regeneration. The presentation offers an overview of works that reimagine the qualities of one of the most prevalent non-primary colours. Indeed, green, whose spectrum ranges from jade to chartreuse, encapsulates memories, reflecting a collective longing for beauty and a pursuit of hope.
