Alongside the launch of this new program, the exhibitions <em>Worlds Away<\/em> by Anne Duk Hee Jordan and <em>Winter Wheat<\/em> by D\u2019Andrea Bowie, are currently on view at the gallery and offer perspectives on ecology.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Another key component will be a series of public dialogues organized by the gallery. The first event, on <a href=\"https:\/\/events.yorku.ca\/events\/shifting-kirsty-robertson-and-kim-kraczon-in-conversation-on-contemporary-art-and-sustainability\/?occurrence=2026-03-19\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">March 19,<\/a> will feature a discussion moderated by Halpern with Kirsty Robertson, Canada Research Chair (Tier 1) in Museums, Art and Sustainability and director of the Centre for Sustainable Curating at Western University, and conservator Kim Kraczon, whose work focuses on reducing the environmental impact of materials and methods used in conservation, art production and exhibition-making.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Insights from these events will inform the second part of Shifting: the development of a living document focused on guiding the gallery\u2019s operations with sustainable best practices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In recent years, Halpern notes, resources supporting responsible approaches in the arts sector have emerged from Canadian organizations such as the Centre for Sustainable Practice in the Arts and the Centre for Sustainable Curating, as well as international groups like the Gallery Climate Coalition.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"alignright size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/www.yorku.ca\/yfile\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/889\/2026\/03\/Goldfarb_DukHeeJordan_th_2343-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"Exhibition view of Anne Duk Hee Jordan: Worlds Away, 2026, at The Goldfarb Gallery.

The project has also benefited from dialogue with specialists on sustainability at York, in particular Associate Professor <strong>Ian Garrett<\/strong> who teaches ecological design for performance and is the director of the&nbsp;Centre for Sustainable Practice in the Arts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Discussions coming out of the speaker series will also inform guiding principles in the document, alongside insights from partners, artists, students and faculty at York University.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Once finalized later this year, Halpern will begin using and sharing the document while continuing to refine the information within as new research, practices and materials emerge. She hopes in doing so, it will evolve into a resource that inspires others, beyond the Joan and Martin Goldfarb Gallery. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cIn reckoning with the scale of the climate change crisis, it can be difficult to envision our potential to make meaningful change,\u201d says Halpern. \u201cThe hope for this project is to not get stuck in feeling powerless, and instead make shifts and create pathways to climate action and integrating more sustainable choices in the work we do.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Featured image: <em>Installation view at The Goldfarb Gallery<\/em><\/em> of <em>D\u2019Andrea\u00a0Bowie's\u00a0<em>Re-member<\/em>.
