Remembering the Future: Reception and Panel Discussion

Visit the MIT Museum for a special celebration of the artist Janet Echelman’s new installation, Remembering the Future. Remembering the Future is a site-specific installation commissioned by the MIT Museum, created during Echelman’s residency as a Distinguished Visiting Artist at MIT’s Center for Art, Science & Technology (CAST) where she collaborated with architect and engineer, Caitlin Mueller, and climate scientist, Raffaele Ferrari. Inspired by data of the Earth’s climate from the last ice age to the present, the sculpture continues into the future visualizing multiple potential trajectories. The evening will feature a panel discussion with Janet Echelman, Caitlin Mueller and climate scientist Susan Solomon, moderated by MIT Museum Director Michael John Gorman, followed by a reception where visitors can experience the dynamic installation. Please note that seating is limited and available on a first-come, first-served basis.
