 **Energies and Imaginations** brings together scholars, artists, architects, and designers to reflect and speculate on the perils and potentials of energy transitions in Latin America. How are creative practices harnessing the material, social, and spiritual dimensions of energy, and drawing upon the imagination of renewal in the current ecological crossroads? How might collective aspirations and artistic imaginations reframe questions of futures in transition?

 This initiative is a collaboration between curators and scholars from the Cisneros Institute at The Museum of Modern Art, New York; Dumbarton Oaks; DRCLAS Art, Film, and Culture Program; the Mellon Urban Initiative at Harvard University; and the Harvard Department of History of Art and Architecture. In 2021, they collectively organized the online research seminar, *Recreating Territories: Art and Urban Imaginations*, a series of conversations with scholars, artists, and designers to reflect on urban territories in Latin America amid an intensification of ecological and political crises. It is also part of a longstanding research topic of the Cisneros Institute, on questions of art and ecology in Contemporary Latin America.

 The panel will be structured in two parts: a first session will feature short presentations by guest scholars and artists, followed by a round table discussion and an open Q&A with the public.
