Cultivating Art with Care: Responding to Second Modernity

Abstract

Cultivating art with care: responding to Second Modernity This chapter discusses how three art practices, each of which engage with gardens or plants in quite different ways, are connected through ethics and practices of care. Common to each is an engagement with what Ulrich Beck calls a 'risk society', whether this is through an examination of global perspectives on colonisation, trade and migration, contemporary activisms or local acts of repair.
