The 4 Ecologists
As much as the 4 artists – Silvia de Gennaro – Maria Korporal – Susanne Wiegner and Brit Bunkley may differ in their nature, expression and concepts, they are united by their artistic excellence, the use of artistic animation as a means of expression and the committed content of their art videos, which makes them ecologists, artistic investigators in the truest sense.

As a project of the New Museum of Networked Art – “The 4 Ecologists” also belong in the context of the retrospective of “animateC – Cologne Art & Animation Festival” on the occasion of the 25th anniversary of the founding of the Museum of Networked Art and the first complete presentation of the Anthropocene Project, which deals with the influence of humans on their environment, reflected in climate change, the destruction of natural resources and escalating social, political and cultural tensions. All of this can be found in the work of these four artists and the more than 80 videos. Represented by 20 individual videos each, the project is also a retrospective of their artistic work since 2010, which also reflects the development of animation over the past 15 years.
