and Art History
When reviewing these resources, keep in mind that approaches to the environment vary considerably and don't necessarily approach sustainable practice or a quality relationship with the environment. For example, though "land art" in the 1960's and 1970's was motivated by revolution against established art practice, it was typically working with an old paradigm of the earth as a manipulatable "object".

Becker, Carol. Surpassing the Spectacle: Global Transformations and the Changing Politics of Art. Lanham, Boulder, New York and Oxford: Rowman & Littlefield Publishers, Inc., 2002.
An anthology of essays published within a 5-year period in the author's search for transcending human ambivalence with the reintegration of art as a way to "reestablish meaning for seriously compromised words such as humane and accountability...". The author is inspired by Guy Debord's Society of the Spectacle (..."The spectacle isn't the world of vision, it is is the vision of the world permeated by the powers of domination...") as a taking off point for the discussion, with post-9/11 commentary included just before the book was about to go to press. Of note is a chapter on Art and Ecology ( the integration of art into life and critical for survival).

A history of the human exploration and manipulation of light at the rise of the Industrial Age in England and Western Europe in an attempt to show how light was used and perceived then, whereby inviting reflection on how we use and think of light now. Ninety-five one-page essays range from light as a source of wonder to one of hell. The exhibition of art, scientific and industrial objects, corresponds to themes on: A Ray of Light -- optics and physics beginning with Sir Isaac Newton; The Light of Nature -- natural light as observed and explained by artists and scientists beginning with the "Enlightenment"; Makers of Light -- new lighting technologies and power; Personal Lights -- lighting for the home and Public Lighting. Without a subject index (except for a named person index) one must peruse each essay for interesting emotional, environmental, social, symbolic, spiritual and political tidbits. The writers have provided a good introduction on their intent, their methodology, and thinking on the subject of light and it's history. Includes a timeline of selected related events from 1675-1905.
