Desert Botanical Garden’s newest art exhibition is traveling
straight from Milan to bring Wild Rising by Cracking Art—this
installation is a more than 1,000 animal sculptures art exhibit in
Phoenix, Arizona made from colorful and recyclable plastic. Wild
Rising is included in the cost of general admission and membership.
The vibrant art forms are the creations of Cracking Art, a collective
of artists who specialize in plastic as an artistic medium with the
intention of radically changing the history of art through a strong
social and environmental commitment. The creatures featured in Wild
Rising not only capture the magnificence of nature but also address
global and local sustainability and conservation issues, including
climate change, plastic in the oceans and the importance of recycling.
Visitors of all ages will be drawn to engage with these vibrant animal
sculpture creations and discover their messages of stewardship for our
environment with this art exhibit. With 12 installations, visitors
will see 20 penguins posing among the cactus and 40 majestic grey
wolves guarding the Cactus and Succulent Galleries. + Google Calendar
