THIS IS A WORLDWIDE CALL BY GUSTAV METZGER FOR A DAY OF ACTION TO REMEMBER NATURE
on November 4th 2015
THIS APPEAL IS FOR THE WIDEST POSSIBLE PARTICIPATION from the WORLD OF THE ARTS
THE AIM IS TO CREATE A MASS MOVEMENT ACROSS THE ARTS to ward off EXTINCTION
“The
art, architecture and design world needs to take a stand against the
ongoing erasure of species – even where there is little chance of
ultimate success. It is our privilege and our duty to be at the
forefront of the struggle. There is no choice but to follow the path of
ethics into aesthetics. We live in societies suffocating in waste.” Gustav Metzger, 2015.
Our
task is to remind people of the richness and complexity in nature; to
protect nature as far as we can and by doing so art will enter new
territories that are inherently creative, that are primarily for the
good of the universe.
What we want to do – what is ahead for us
is to bring together the world of the arts – to unite in having a day of
art actions covering the entire country. We call those who engage in
the arts to participate in a day of mass action, to create a collective
artwork to Remember Nature.
