"Grande defines a future where small-scale societies exist in harmony with their individual bio-regions, and he finds art that articulates this vision. His writing is clear and blessedly free of postmodern jargon." - Public Art Review "Demonstrates that art criticism doesn't have to give readers a headache. His grasp of details—both artistic and political—makes this book convincing, and interesting." - Books In Canada "One doesn't have to agree with everything Grande writes in order to welcome this book's arrival." - Globe and Mail "Engaging, provocative and thoughtful...Grande cares passionately about art, the environment, and the relationship between them." —Compass
