Works of George Bolster

This monograph examines the multidisciplinary practice of conceptual Irish artist George Bolster, who addresses the crises facing our species, and our willingness to live in the past through belief systems.

Bolster’s ambitious immersive text and image works encompass film, installation, tapestry and photography. When Will We Recognize Us examines the practice of research-based artist George Bolster, who addresses the crises facing our species, long-term conservation of art objects as they relate to climate change, our ignorance of tangible reality, and our willingness to live in the past through outmoded belief systems.

Bolster’s ambitious multidisciplinary text and image works encompassing film, and installation, conducted in concert with a range of scientists have resulted in pieces that philosophically address astronomy, and our self-appointed place in evolution.
