Description of the research topic:
The Western man of the 21st century will have to transform his ideals and values radically. We are living in an era of the birth of new ideologies based on proposals for solutions to the new challenges of the new millennium. How do we respond to the consequences of globalisation affecting our daily lives? How close do we allow ourselves to get to other cultures? How do we imagine cultures living side by side? How important is it for us to preserve our natural environment? What are we willing to give up for it? These are the questions that people today are seeking answers to. More and more of them feel the need to develop a new system of ideas that abandons the idea of continuous economic growth, places themselves in a more distant perspective, and sets out a meaningful vision for the future.
The rise of public, street, and environmental art illustrates this aspiration by artists already emerging from the gallery system.
Artists working in the natural environment resonate with the same general desire for social betterment, only they leave the aggressive reordering of the world to engineers in urban centres and are content with 'small gestures' far from the organised playing field of cultural politics. In the face of growing ecological problems, nature art is just as relevant and socially engaged a form of artistic expression as the activist art flourishing today in response to social phenomena.
