ABSTRACT Art has the power to activate learning and emotion in unique ways—this is true of humans generally, and museum visitors specifically. Yet art galleries are often overlooked in the museum field as forums for dialogue and sites of learning about climate change. This article investigates the significance of artist-led projects and art museum exhibitions in engaging visitors with issues of climate change and greater planetary change through the lens of the Art Gallery of Ontario’s Anthropocene exhibition featuring the work of Edward Burtynsky, Jennifer Baichwal and Nicholas de Pencier and the related Anthropocene Project by the same trio of artists.

可怕的美：人类世的艺术与学习

摘要艺术有能力以独特的方式激活学习和情感——这对人类来说是普遍的，尤其是博物馆的参观者。然而，作为对话论坛和了解气候变化的场所，艺术画廊在博物馆领域经常被忽视。本文探讨了艺术家主导的项目和艺术博物馆展览在通过安大略美术馆人类世展览的镜头吸引游客参与气候变化和更大的行星变化问题的重要性，该展览展出了爱德华·伯廷斯基、詹妮弗·拜奇瓦尔和尼古拉斯·德彭西尔的作品以及由同一三位艺术家进行的相关人类世项目。
