Artistic actions to ENGAGE THE PUBLIC FOR THE CLIMATE
Installations, performances, participatory workshops and artistic experiments, ArtCOP21 l’Agenda Culturel de la COP21 offers a truly wide-ranging artistic journey around climate issues until December.
More than 180 French and international cultural players and institutions, including the best initiatives combining art and ecology, have already registered their actions on the ArtCOP21 agenda. COAL and Cape Farewell, who initiated the project, are collaborating on the implementation of some 25 events.
Taking concrete action
Artists get involved and carry out artistic experiments that have a direct impact on our planet: de-pollution of the Ourcq canal at La Villette with Michaël Pinsky, reforestation and tree planting with “One heart one Tree” by Naziha Metsaoui and the poetic party, renewable energy with Olafur Eliasson‘s lamps, preservation of the oceans with the boat Tara under the Alexandre III Bridge, civic engagement with the Passport Office by Lucy& Jorge Orta, etc…

Shock installations with Gideon Mendel‘s Drowning World, fine particles at the Mona Bismarck Center, a house that melts at the Gare du Nord, the Eiffel Tower illuminated thanks to the energy of the population by Yann TOMA, teaching children the right gestures at the Gaîté Lyrique.
