Columbia College Chicago Hosts Film Viewing of Burning Ice March 14, 2011

Columbia College Chicago hosts film viewing of Burning Ice, a documentary by filmmaker Peter Gilbert followed by Q&A with David Buckland and Chris Wainwright.

In September 2009, documentary filmmaker Peter Gilbert joined more than 40 observers - including musicians Laurie Anderson, Jarvis Cocker, Robyn Hitchcock, Ryuichi Sakamoto and writers Suzan-Lori Parks and Andrew Revkin - on an ice-breaking ship for a nine-day voyage off the coast of Greenland with artist-led climate change project, Cape Farewell. Their goal was to see, experience and contemplate the effects of climate change first-hand - and to begin a creative conversation with the rest of the world about one of the most important and pressing issues facing the future of humanity.
