Autodesk, Natural World Museum Promote Sustainable Design
SAN
RAFAEL, California, May 10, 2007 - Autodesk, Inc. (ADSK), the world leader
in 2D and 3D design software for the manufacturing, building and
construction, and media and entertainment markets, is working with the
Natural World Museum to drive awareness of global environmental issues and
promote sustainable design. Autodesk is the title sponsor of the traveling
exhibition, Envisioning Change, hosted by the Natural World Museum and the
United Nations Environment Program, which offers thought-provoking
perspectives on the issue of climate change from artists around the world.
The relationship demonstrates a collaboration between public and private
sector organizations with similar visions to inform and promote innovations
that address current and future sustainable design challenges. In addition,
Autodesk helped to bring the exhibit to life as the layout was designed
using Autodesk software.
The Natural World Museum is a nonprofit organization that presents art
through innovative programs to inspire and engage the public in
environmental awareness and action. The Envisioning Change exhibition, which
follows the theme of this year's United Nations World Environment Day,
"Melting Ice - A Hot Topic," brings together 40 artists from 25 countries to
address issues confronting our changing environment as reflected in the
melting and thawing of ice, snow and permafrost from the Himalayas to
Kilimanjaro, from the Andes to the Arctic.
"Autodesk is proud to support the Natural World Museum and the
Envisioning Change exhibit," said Carl Bass, president and CEO, Autodesk.
"We have a strong 25-year history of confronting design challenges head on
and are committed to helping customers embrace sustainable design practices
to address today's environmental concerns. Through these collective efforts
and Autodesk's technology, we hope to help designers in all industries
create a more sustainable world."
"We're excited to be working with Autodesk to help promote the need for
sustainable design on a global scale," said Mia Hanak, Executive Director,
Natural World Museum. "As a key sponsor for Envisioning Change, Autodesk's
vision for impacting change through design contributes to our goal of
inspiring creative sustainable solutions worldwide."
Envisioning Change -- "Melting Ice -- A Hot Topic" will launch at the
Nobel Peace Center in Oslo, Norway, during
United Nations World Environment
Day on June 5, 2007, and remain on display through the end of August. The
exhibit will travel to the BOZAR Centre for Fine Arts in Brussels, Belgium,
in October 2007 and to Chicago in spring 2008.
Autodesk is committed to driving awareness and adoption of sustainable
design through public and private partnerships, with organizations such as
the U.S. Green Building Council and Integrated Energy Solutions, and as a
major sponsor of a multi-segment public television series on sustainable
design. Autodesk also provides technology, education and support for
initiatives that inform and promote innovations that address current and
future sustainable design challenges.
