Nature Strikes Back

Our host has, due to the climate conference in Copenhagen 2009, invited two art historians, Hanne and Henrik, in the studio to reflect on questions such as: How has our relationship to nature changed? How do scientific revolutions leave their mark in art? How does landscape art change, and what does the Apocalypse look like?
