In the globally overheated future, what will remain of the natural world? What will be extinguished? What will you miss? In a wide-ranging group exhibition, artists take a melancholy, hopeful and sometimes humorous look at what they will miss most after "The End of Nature."

What would the world be, once bereft
Of wet and wildness? Let them be left,
O let them be left, wilderness and wet;
Long live the weeds and the
Wilderness yet.
–Gerard Manley Hopkins, 1881
