Climate Art Project

The Climate Art Project (CAP) is an interdisciplinary project between art, science, and climate and social justice. The Climate Art Project was conceived in 2015 by the artist Andrea Conte (Andreco.), inspired by the recent scientific and philosophical studies on Climate Change and the relationship between the human and the more than human.

The Climate Art Project began in Paris in November 2015 during COP 21, the UN conference on climate change, the Paris Agreement and the Climate March, and then continued in other cities around the world. CAP also became an ecological art practice that consists in the realisation of various site-specific interventions, including exhibitions, installations in urban space, performances, citizen science workshops, murals and talks, aimed at creating a link between science and art, political ecologies, ecofeminism and climate justice and policy making. The aim of the project is to highlight the vulnerability of the territory where the interventions will take place and the possible climate actions.

Since 2018, CAP is also a cultural association based in Rome, Italy, that develops international and local projects, between contemporary art, science and ecology with a growing team of collaborators. CAP collaborates with other associations, collectives, institutions, museums, art galleries, foundations, research centres and ethical companies.

Climate Art Project aim to contribute to the international and local debate on the ecological transition, the climate justice and action.
