Resolutions for the Antarctic: International Stations & the Antarctic Data Space
-
Architecture and Design Gallery, Daniels Building
The future of our planet depends, to a great extent, on the future of Antarctica. Yet the continent, which is known as the white desert, is largely neglected by the global community.
Curated by UNLESS, a non-profit agency devoted to interdisciplinary research on extreme environments threatened by the planetary crisis, Resolutions for the Antarctic: International Stations & the Antarctic Data Space is a multi-media exhibition showcasing the work of more than 200 scientists, architects and designers whose collective efforts to document, clarify and protect the uniqueness of the vast southern continent—a harbinger and a linchpin of our wider planet’s health—have global significance.
The exhibition will be the North American debut of work first displayed at the Venice Architecture Biennale and compiled in an award-winning book entitled Antarctic Resolution.
It will also see the launch of Resolutions for the Antarctic: International Stations & the Antarctic Data Space, a short film that tracks the evolution of Antarctica’s research stations, as well as the launch of the Antarctic Resolution Platform, an open-access site developed by UNLESS to enable the worldwide dissemination, downloading and translation of the multidisciplinary research conducted so far.
