Architect, designer and artist Fritz Haeg will discuss his Edible 
Estates and Animal Estates projects. Edible Estates: Attack on the 
Front Lawn, a book chronicling Haeg's commissioned conversions of 
standard sod lawns into productive gardens, was published by 
Metropolis Books and distributed by D.A.P. in spring 2008. Animal 
Estates, featured in the 2008 Whitney Biennial, includes sculptural 
installations and performances which engage and temporarily restore 
the current and historical habitats of wild creatures. In addition to 
these projects, Fritz Haeg has since 2001 hosted the Sundown Salon, a 
forum for "events, happenings, gatherings, meetings, pageantry, 
performances, shows, stunts & spectacles"; and since 2006, the 
Sundown Schoolhouse, a "self-organized educational environment." 
Sponsored by the IHC's Food Matters series and the Department of Art 
Symposium Series.
