Land Art Generator Initiative: art and energy.

Fremantle, Chris

Abstract

The Land Art Generator Initiative brings together interdisciplinary teams to develop place-making using renewable energy technologies. LAGI builds on the history of energy infrastructure design: city centre power stations have been repurposed as art galleries. The presentation explores Scotland as a context for LAGI including energy histories; landscape/seascape opportunities for renewables; as well as land reform and community ownership. The role of arts and culture in the social dimensions of energy systems are explored through examples including PLATFORM/Sea Renue and Peter Fend. The presentation concludes with an overview of the LAGI Glasgow project.
