Very glad to welcome Filipa Ramos to discuss her latest bookS with artists Tabita Rezaire, Carlos Casas and Alex Cecchetti.
In The Artist as Ecologist (Lund Humphries, 2025), Filipa Ramos looks at pioneering approaches to ecology by key contemporary artists from different generations and cultural backgrounds working in different art media. The author also considers the balance between ecology as theme and ecology as practice, underscoring the imperative for both artists and art institutions to adopt responsible environmental positions in their practice.

She will also present The Shape of a Circle in the Mind of a Fish (Hatje Cantz/Serpentine, 2025), an enquiry into non-human, human and artificial minds, and an invitation to rethink our place on this planet. Coedited by Ramos and Lucia Pietroiusti. this collection brings together interventions by 100 experts and creative practitioners across the humanities, art and science to investigate animal, plant and fungal intelligence, consciousness and affects, machine sentience and interspecies communication.
