How can art fairs become greener?

Art fairs face significant sustainability challenges due to their temporary nature. Untitled Art in Miami Beach, held in a tent on the beach, works with environmental departments to ensure zero impact, reusing its tent annually. Fairs in permanent venues like Art Basel Miami Beach at the LEED Silver-rated convention center must manage temporary walls, energy use, and waste. Exhibitors struggle with high carbon emissions—art fair activities account for a third of a gallery's annual emissions—and waste from packing materials. Shipping constraints often force reliance on air freight over slower, greener options like ocean or rail, especially for last-minute, high-value consignments. The competitive, secretive atmosphere further hinders consolidated shipments and sustainable practices.

Do you hate art museums? Why (and how) to take a 2nd look

Do you hate art museums? Why (and how) to take a 2nd look

The traditional art museum experience often leads to exhaustion and a sense of alienation due to the overwhelming abundance of artworks and the pressure to see everything quickly. This phenomenon, which affects even visitors to world-class institutions like the Vatican or the Uffizi, stems from a 'problem of abundance' rather than a lack of appreciation for the art itself. The author suggests that smaller, more intimate spaces and a slower approach to viewing would make art more accessible and less intimidating for the general public.
