Fritz Haeg, the acclaimed artist whose practices intersects architecture, ecology, activism, pedagogy and design, is based out of a geodesic dome in Los Angeles and currently in Europe on a Rome Prize Fellowship. His work has included edible gardens, public dances, educational environments, animals homes, domestic gatherings, urban parades, temporary encampments, documentary videos, publications, exhibitions and occasionally buildings for people. Recent projects include Sundown Schoolhouse - an itinerant educational program; Edible Estates - replacing domestic front lawns with edible landscapes; and Animal Estates - making homes for native animals in cities around the world, which debuted at the 2008 Whitney Biennial. Recent books include „The Sundown Salon Unfolding Archive“ (Evil Twin Publications, 2009), and the expanded second edition of “Edible Estates: Attack on the Front Lawn” (Metropolis Books, 2010).
