From Anthropocene disaster to prodigal creation. <\/em><\/strong>The environmental destruction of the world and its rich aesthetic translation.<\/em><\/p>\n The culture of the Anthropocene is nourished by a set of perceptions of the environmental situation that find their translation in the very way we ‘represent’ and give shape to ecological reality. The result is a profusion of intellectual and artistic creation, as rich in cultural wealth as the Anthropocene is rich in destruction of all kinds. Is damaging the planet a paradox?<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Paul Ardenne<\/strong> has a degree in History and a doctorate in Arts and Art Sciences.
