Cohabitation & What is Wrong with Ecological Art

This talk debates the different perspectives and problems on our planet, concerning exploitation of labor, extraction of minerals, and its consequences. It addresses issues of cohabitation in terms of living in the same time and space where different worlds and cosmo-visions exist simultaneously, the paradigm of the modern man, and culture. Is making art on these issues self-important and contributing itself to waste? And what is the role of art in general in this context?
