The Role of Art in Communicating and Understanding the Planet

Emanuele Coccia, Italian philosopher

The contemporary climate crisis is also, and above all, proof that what we call Earth is not an object, but rather a subject, it is something that is before us like any other self: the planet acts freely, it literally does what it wants. he wants and we are no longer owners of his behavior, neither from a cognitive point of view nor from a pragmatic point of view. That is why the terms and names of ecological science, the very name of ecology, the concept of ecosystem, that of planet, seem to have become completely useless.

Emanuele Coccia, one of the main representatives of the philosophy of nature, will delve into this activity why we need art (theater, music, performance, video games, painting, sculpture, installations, fashion, literature and all other disciplines) to talk about the planet: we can no longer allow ourselves to talk about it without making it talk, we can no longer allow ourselves to talk about it without staging it as a free subject, as a character in a novel or a play. That is why ecology must become an art, and art must become the supreme form of ecology.
