Can artists save the planet?
In December 2006 leading artists, scientists, academics and politicians from across the world challenged each others thinking for an enquiry into the critical ecological issues of today.
An audience of 300 heard speakers from 11 countries explore the depths of global ecological crisis, asking if artists should play a role in the environment debate?
Speakers included Turner prize-winning artist Jeremy Deller, Professor Zou Ji, the Chinese Delegate at UN climate change talks and Culture Minister David Lammy MP. Lammy launched LAND, ART: A Cultural Ecology Handbook, a publication that looks at the last 50 years of art and it's relevance to the global debate about the environment.
