The Science Behind Environmental Arts

 

THEORY OF ICEALITY ON ENVIRONMENTAL ARTS

 

The "Theory of Iceality on Environmental Arts" is practical study on the aesthetics of the relationship between Humans and their Environment through Arts and Culture, ultimately promoting an effective sustainable global Culture of Peace between all Living Things ~ Human, Animal and Plant Kingdoms)

 

At the ARK in Berea, global home of the environmental arts movement, David Jakupca, states that, "The special Theory of Iceality belongs to a class of "principle-theories". As such it employs an analytic method. This means that the three elements which comprise this theory, Humanitarian, Environmental, Arts and Culture, are not based on hypothesis but on empirical discovery. The empirical discovery leads to understanding the general characteristics of natural processes".

 

The general natural processes are all connected. As stated above, the special 'Theory of Iceality on Environmental Arts' explains the application to all inertial physical phenomena and its relation to all other forces of nature.

 

Practical models can then be developed which separate the natural processes into theoretical-mathematical descriptions. Therefore, by analytical means the necessary conditions that have to be satisfied are deduced. Separate events must satisfy these conditions. Experience should then match the conclusions.

 

Although it is widely acknowledged that American Cultural Ambassadors David and Renate Jakupca created the principles of the Theory of Iceality in its modern understanding in 1977, They are also responsible for enlightening the global art community to the new genre of Art when they founded the International Center for Environmental Arts (ICEA) in 1987 at the now historic ARK in Berea , Ohio. ICEA was organized into the three divisions: Environmental, Humanities, Arts and Culture, and as the first professional art organization to be solely dedicated to this endeavor, this has made ICEA to be the leading force in the Environmental arts and a force for socially responsible activity.

 

According to Jakupca, beginning with ICEA, the Environmental Arts Genre has grown professionally exponentially and has over the past decades spawned a wide variety of very similar phrases and art terms such as; eco art, land art, ecoventions, natural art, green art, outdoor art, earth art, recycled art, sustainable art, ecodedsign, etc. These can be all be considered sub-categories under the umbrella of the main Environmental Art Genre.

 

Jakupca asserts that, "Respect for human and environmental rights and greater understanding between people from different racial and religious backgrounds must be the first goal of society in today's fast-changing, globalized world." The goal is accomplished according to Jakupca, "Is by focusing on the creative process and affirming that the "Theory of Iceality on Environmental Arts" is a catalyst for social change by empowering participants, transforming environments and contributing to collective healing and economic development."
