SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Bill McKibben\, \"Down to the Wire: A Hot Fight in a Hot World\" (16th Peter M. Wege Foundation Lecture on Sustainability)
DESCRIPTION:Bill McKibben\, an author and environmentalist who in 2014 was awarded the Right Livelihood Prize\, sometimes called the \"alternative Nobel.\" His 1989 book The End of Nature is regarded as the first book for a general audience about climate change\, and has appeared in 24 languages\; he’s gone on to write a dozen more books. He is a founder of 350.org\, the first planet-wide\, grassroots climate change movement\, which has organized twenty  thousand rallies around the world in every country save North Korea\, spearheaded the resistance to the Keystone Pipeline\, and launched the fast-growing fossil fuel divestment movement.  \n\nThe Schumann Distinguished Scholar in Environmental Studies at Middlebury College and a fellow of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences\, he was the 2013 winner of the Gandhi Prize and the Thomas Merton Prize\, and holds honorary degrees from 18 colleges and universities. Foreign Policy named him to their inaugural list of the world’s 100 most important global thinkers\, and the Boston Globe said he was “probably America’s most important environmentalist.”   \n\nA former staff writer for the New Yorker\, he writes frequently for a wide variety of publications around the world\, including the New York Review of Books\,National Geographic\, and Rolling Stone. He lives in the mountains above Lake Champlain with his wife\, the writer Sue Halpern\, where he spends as much time as possible outdoors . In 2014\, biologists honored him by naming a new species of woodland gnat—Megophthalmidia mckibbeni—in his honor.\n\nBill McKibben is the featured presenter of the School for Environment and Sustainability's 16th Peter M.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Christo: The Floating Piers and Work in Progress
DESCRIPTION:Christo is a sculptor known for co-creating large scale ephemeral works worldwide with his longtime artistic partner and wife\, Jeanne-Claude (1935-2009). Over the span of his 60-year career\, Christo and Jeanne-Claude have created many public works involving the exterior wrapping of buildings\, museums\, and public spaces in canvas\, tarp\, and other materials. Oil barrels have also featured prominently in the couple’s work\, selected for their “sculptural effect and low cost.” Their most recent U.S. project\, The Gates (completed in 2005)\, featured 7\,503 rectangular arches draped in saffron fabric across New York City’s Central Park. While many speculate on the specific meaning of Christo and Jeanne-Claude’s work\, throughout their career\, the artists have shunned the idea that their creative work seeks to convey deeper meanings\, insisting that they create work to evoke a purely visceral emotional response using visual aesthetic. However\, Christo speaks of the public locations of their installations in decidedly democratic terms. “Nobody can buy our projects. Nobody can sell tickets to experience our projects. Freedom is the enemy of possession and possession is equal to permanence. That is why our projects cannot remain and must go away forever. Our projects are ‘once in a lifetime’ and ‘once upon a time.’”\n\nThis program is presented in partnership with the University of Michigan Museum of Art on the occasion of the UMMA exhibition Victors for Art: Michigan’s Alumni Collectors — Part II: Abstraction\, with additional support from the Weiser Center for Emerging Democracies.\n\nAll Penny Stamps Distinguished Speaker Series presentations are free and open to the public\; visit http://stamps.umich.edu/stamps to view upcoming events.
