an intriguing art exhibition looks at how electric light has changed. current weather patterns around the world are showing us quite clearly that we are not looking after all planets and recent pictures coming out of venice some naturally disturbing not just for the local population that but for those around the world and indeed anyone who has visited this extraordinary city in northern italy the crypt in st mark's basilica unesco world heritage site is on the wall stuff and this is the 6th time this is happened in 1200 years but 4 of those times have been in the last 2 decades. the climate crisis is threatening our cultural heritage but is the arts world also affecting the climate after all work flown around the globe for us all to see the culture see trying to bring the subject of climate change to our attention is sometimes guilty of

creating quite a carbon footprint of. the contemporary art world is glamorous chic and extravagant and that carries an enormous carbon footprint. as people think they're the pinnacle of creation and art or culture is the cherry on top we're insanely arrogant. collectors artists and art works to our constantly jetting around the globe. art festivals and museums are under pressure to produce record high visitor numbers. for years apart has been a major factor in bringing in tourists making cities more attractive to travelers with money. but what's the real cost the art world is beginning to consider that question last year artist will offer earlier some transported blocks of glacial ice from greenland to london. for people to experience their slow melt 1st half.

unfortunately just transporting the ice resulted in $35.00 tons of c o 2 emissions which the artist documents of himself. can climate conscious art be made more climate friendly in frankfurt the exhibition trees of life stories for a damaged planet looks at some new ideas. artist and the hunted god has created a work that uses almost no resources he founded an organization that buys the land and turns it over to mother nature the idea is to help regenerate insect populations which some studies show have dropped by 80 percent over the last decades so anyone can donate and participate. mention hits a woman to creating nonhuman zones is a radical demand a utopian tomato because the idea of taking a piece of land away from humans and human productivity is not especially popular is it was was based on this. this project digs even deeper turning the

micro macro a full room projection immerses visitors in the microbial life contained in a single drop of water showing us that we humans are just part of an incredibly complex ecosystem. all the cost also the great power of art is its ability to create deeper understanding sometimes that happens on a visual level sometimes through sounds that trigger something in us sometimes it works through intuition much more folks you know does this the into it's all. these bacterial cultures make visible something many of us would like to ignore. researchers say some half of the cells in our bodies are not human cells at all but bacteria artists only a boy mode dips her own body into giant petri dishes allowing the bacteria that live on her skin to grow. and paint her image.

as artworks are not meant to last. it's not every artist who denies the art market her works. it's not so much about ownership and this is mine let me hang it on my wall instead it's about changing our ideas and our behavior not just for artists but for institutions that show their work many are trying to create exhibitions that are less damaging to the environment. it's a question for sending exhibitions to large crowds means changing around the space and buying materials and there's no easy way out of that dilemma even while we're putting a show together there are still many ways to figure out with the artist if we couldn't use materials that are better smarter that can be reused oversized. and

that's. keeping down the impact of even daily life remains a huge challenge in this room i phones are reduced to their valuable raw materials wind from the earth at a huge cost to the environment human consumption is another area artists are eyeing more critically the exhibition trees of life in frankfurt shows some of their positions and proves artists can do more to raise awareness for frontal planet. now the small weston german town of half ford is one of the most spectacular contemporary art museums in europe designed by the world renowned dock insect frank gehry its unique exterior is also reflected in signed by the very unique and different types of exhibitions they stage that currently as one cold in the spotlights of the night life in the gloom the premise big that since the
