Earlier in 2018, Broto: Art, Science & Collaboration hosted its inaugural conference of experts in art, science, sustainability and collaboration – in part to begin a dialogue about how art and science might better, or more meaningfully, collaborate on aspects of climate change. The developing “Broto Collaboration Blueprint” is, in itself a work in partnership, with an array of stakeholders weighing in on how to execute “substantive, real-time, credible and mutual” collaboration between art and science.
Early in our development, Provincetown-based landscape painter Joerg Dressler and Mark Borrelli, Ph.D., Coastal Geologist, Director, Center for Coastal Studies Provincetown agreed to explore a partnership of art and science.
