Through the work of an international group of artist visitors are invited to reflect on whether we can truly translate the radical otherness of beings such as bats or whales. The exhibition, which opened on 28 April, forms part of a broader interdisciplinary symposium that seeks to highlight both the opportunities and the risks of new scientific approaches reminding us that the complexity of the climate crisis demands a new, shared language of communication with the planet.<\/span>\r\n\r\n<strong>Artists:<\/strong>\r\nKyriaki Goni\r\nAbelardo Gil-Fournier\r\nNona Inescu\r\nAgata Ingarden\r\nBill Kouligas\r\nRaffaela Naldi Rossano\r\nZo\u00eb Paul\r\nJenna Sutela\r\n\r\n<strong>Exhibition duration:<\/strong> 1\u201330 May.\r\n\r\n<strong>Opening hours:<\/strong> Monday\u2013Thursday: 08:00\u201322:00, Friday: 08:00\u201317:00 &amp; Saturday: 08:00\u201314:30 (23 May: closed).","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Goethe-Institut Athen presents the exhibition Ecological Translation, a bold exploration of our relationship with the natural world.
