Our planet is on the brink of a devastating 3ºC temperature rise. Droughts, storms, fires, and floods are ravaging communities worldwide, pushing ecosystems and livelihoods to the edge. While the situation is dire, we haven’t yet reached the point of no return. The choices we make by 2030 will determine whether we can avert these dangers and live in harmony with nature.


Art has the power to inspire and drive change. Art for a Healthy Planet is ART 2030’s annual campaign to raise awareness about climate change, biodiversity loss, and the health of our planet.


The time to act is now — together, we can shape the future we need. Join us across three key touchpoints, harnessing the power of art:


Earth Day April 22
World Environment Day June 5
World Oceans Day June 8

Robert Longo

“As an artist, I feel a moral imperative to preserve the images of our shared dystopic present with the hope that something will one day change.”
– Robert Longo


Renowned for his monumental hyper-realistic drawings, American artist Robert Longo creates captivating charcoal works with striking visual intensity. His motifs often depict dramatic moments at their peak of tension, appearing photorealistic from afar yet abstract and conceptual up close. Above all, Longo’s work explores the representation of power—in nature, politics, and history.


Longo’s mastery of scale and chiaroscuro (the interplay of light and dark) adds emotional depth to his intimate, monochromatic works. Through his meticulous charcoal technique, he captures moments we might otherwise miss, revealing the beauty and complexity of the world around us.


Driven by a deep concern for the long-term impact of human activity on nature, Longo has created several series addressing environmental issues, particularly the threats faced by endangered species. His art not only celebrates the wonders of nature but also serves as a powerful call to action against climate change. Longo’s work challenges us to see the world anew, urging us to confront the urgent need to protect our planet.

Tue Greenfort

The work of Danish artist Tue Greenfort prompts us to reflect on our relationship with the environment, particularly within Denmark’s cultivated landscapes. Through his research-driven projects, Greenfort examines the consequences of monoculture farming, resource depletion, and unsustainable agricultural practices on biodiversity, among other urgent issues.


Denmark's landscape, shaped over generations of human intervention, is dominated by monocultures, heavily reliant on fertilizers and pesticides. This approach is rapidly depleting natural habitats and threatening biodiversity. Through his work, Greenfort urges us to reconsider how these practices are influencing not only the land but also the future of our food systems and natural ecosystems.


Almost 100% of Denmark’s area is or has been significantly affected by human activity, and only 5% of nature is in favorable condition. As our land area remains limited, we must urgently rethink how we prioritize and use our natural spaces.

In the Renzo Piano Pavilion, Ángela Jiménez Durán’s work invites us to engage with nature in a new way. By encasing local roots in wax, she transforms them into fossil-like pieces that capture the the land’s memories. Her approach to “covering” and “caring” highlights the porous nature of materials, the agency of the non-living, and the power of natural matter to preserve a place’s past. A beautiful reminder that nature has its own way of preserving stories, revealing the hidden connections that bind us to the Earth and the cosmos.


Jiménez Durán’s work is part of the group show 'Par quatre chemins,' curated by POUSH, on view at Château La Coste through 9 June 2025.
