Alongside this material growth, image-making practices embedded within the fields of art and architecture have proven to be fertile, mobile, and capacious. Images of accumulation help open up the climate to cultural inquiry and political mobilisation and have formed a cultural infrastructure focused on the relationships between humans, other species, and their environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe essays in \u003ci\u003eAccumulation\u003c\/i\u003e address this cultural infrastructure and the methodological challenges of its analysis. They offer a response to the relative invisibility of the climate now seen as material manifestations of social behaviour. Contributors outline opportunities and ambitions of visual scholarship as a means to encounter the challenges emergent in the current moment: how can climate become visible, culturally and politically? Knowledge of climatic instability can change collective behaviour and offer other trajectories, counter-accumulations that draw the present into a different, more liveable future.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eContributors: Emily Apter, New York U; Hans Baumann; Amanda Boeztkes, U of Guelph; Dominic Boyer, Rice U; Lindsay Bremner, U of Westminster; Nerea Calvillo, U of Warwick; Beth Cullen, U of Westminster; T.
