Our fall intern Alix listened to the two radio interviews that exhibiting artist Kirsten Stolle did while in Charleston for the opening of her exhibition, Only You Can Prevent A Forest. Kirsten Stolle uses the words “absurd,” “bombastic,” and “seductive” to describe this exhibit yet there is still a sense of seriousness and perhaps urgency as you make your way from one room to the next. Only You Can Prevent A Forest unveils the story of the horrific use of pesticides throughout history and its effects today. This exhibition is nothing short of powerful as it encapsulates irony, playfulness, and yearning for people to wake up. READ WHOLE POST [+]
Our fall intern Maddie chose to take a sort dive into the history of Bayer and it's merger with Monsanto. Using appropriation, wordplay, and humor, Kirsten Stolle co-opts advertising strategies used by agrichemical corporations to resurface and critique company history. Building upon her decade-long research into companies like Bayer/Monsanto and Dow Chemical, the work will forefront historical ties to chemical warfare and reveal persistent greenwashing. Stolle’s work interrogates the global influence of chemical companies on our food supply and their consistent efforts to downplay effects of their toxic products on our health and environment.
