These art practices include activities like mushroom foraging, water witching, trespassing, pumpkin-boat sailing, cloud identifying, ravine running, honey extracting, spell conjuring, rabbit hunting, coyote walking and more. The project calls attention to creative, counter-cultural works that are focused on education, community and place, and blur the boundaries between art and life, nature and culture.</p> <p>Featuring interviews, essays and over 150 photographs, <em>Outdoor School</em> is an important contribution to discussions of contemporary art and ecology, foregrounding work that is marginal and ephemeral by nature.</p> <p>Artists featured in <em>Outdoor School</em> include Alana Bartol, Diane Borsato, Bill Burns, Carolina Caycedo, Sameer Farooq, FASTWÜRMS, Ayumi Goto, Maggie Groat, Gabrielle Hill, Peter Morin, Public Studio, Helen Reed, Genevieve Robertson, Jamie Ross, Aislinn Thomas, Vibrant Matter, Jay White, Tania Willard, Terri-Lynn Williams-Davidson and D'Arcy Wilson.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>Mushroom foraging, water witching and honey extracting are but a few of the outdoor activities that, according to Toronto artists Diane Borsato and Amish Morrell, can help us shift our views of nature away from scientific, commercial and colonial perceptions of land... Outdoor School is a primer for a new generation of ecologically inspired art, showcasing a variety of recent experiential and community-based projects. - <b>AGOinsider</b></p><br>
