The North is a complex place that is beautiful, moody, and anything
but untouched. The Arctic, part of the international North that is
pivotal to the world because of climate change, is no longer a
frontier of the past. The same interest in the North that
preoccupied artists and explorers of the Romantic era has returned
greater than ever, but rather than merely depicting its grandeur,
today's artists, scientists, and explorers question the future of
the landscape. Up Here connects art, science, and environment at a
time when unprecedented climate change requires unprecedented
innovation. The contributors explore the ideas of "wilderness" and
"remoteness," the lessons to be learned from cold places and
indigenous knowledge, and how the Arctic is a signal for global
change.
