Art at the heart of change
We dream of a world where art, in all its forms, becomes a universal language to understand climate challenges and mobilize for action.
Launched in 2011, ART’S PLANET was the first initiative to unite art, heritage, culture, and climate action within a global, inclusive, and solidarity-based approach. Since then, hardly a week goes by without new initiatives emerging, claiming to serve climate, environmental, or other causes—often with high visibility. We welcome this collective momentum, while taking pride in our own uniqueness: an initiative driven from day one entirely by volunteers from the ENERGIES 2050 association, independent, non-profit, and firmly committed to its ethical values.
This constancy and independence are at the core of our next chapter: the launch of our dedicated platform, designed as a living space to showcase artists, tell the stories of projects, and amplify the impact of our actions.
ART’S PLANET brings together artists, communities, partners, and engaged citizens from across the globe to protect heritage, promote culture, and use creativity as a lever for solidarity. This diversity of expressions and perspectives fuels an essential intercultural dialogue to imagine sustainable solutions together.
Together, we organize exhibitions, performances, and conferences, with proceeds funding concrete adaptation and resilience projects for vulnerable communities.
A Collective Journey that Connects, Transforms, and Inspires
Over the years, ART’S PLANET has grown into more than just an initiative: it has become a living link between art, culture, heritage, and climate action. Our exhibitions and projects act as bridges, enabling artists, citizens, and communities to reclaim their heritage and culture while joining a collective journey that transcends borders.
The uniqueness of ART’S PLANET lies in its ability to transform creativity into tangible and inspiring actions: rehabilitating mangroves, implementing improved cookstoves, supporting women’s entrepreneurship, promoting subsistence farming, assisting people in vulnerable situations… These projects, rooted in local realities, deliver lasting solutions while fostering international solidarity.
A portion of the artwork sales is also returned to the artists, supporting their creative endeavours and amplifying the impact of their commitment.
The connections between cultural heritage, art, sustainable development, and the fight against climate change are undeniable. They link society to its daily realities while opening new horizons. Now more than ever, it is vital to rediscover a shared foundation of common values by celebrating the richness of our diversity, creativity, and collective imagination.
Our ambition: to build and strengthen these connections between citizens, shedding light on the complex issues that shape our ways of life and our relationship with nature and with one another.
