Art Catalogue Introduction

Welcome to the inaugural Green Creates… art exhibition.

Artistic expression, in its many forms, has existed in every age, every culture, and every country. Art can be both rooted in history and a catalyst for change. It connects us to the past, expresses our views of the present and suggests new ideas and visions for the future.

As such, it is only fitting that we should call upon the support of the arts’ community today, as we stand on the brink of an uncertain future, attempting to hold onto the values and achievements that make us proud to be British, whilst working towards a new and better tomorrow. ‘‘Green’ suggests healthy options and therefore Green Creates… is an opportunity for the arts community to show their support for the Green Party, our policies healthy outcomes. Green issues should be the first and our work, but also an example of art as a social commentary in a time of social, economic and political consideration in everything from housing, to health unrest. The theme of Green Voices called for artists to express their opinions on the issues of the day and they to education and beyond.’’ have produced work that encompasses everything from climate change to the ephemeral beauty of nature. Ralph Steadman We are delighted at the richness and diversity of the work that we have on display and to welcome you to this celebration of some of the different interpretations of what it means to be green today.

Best wishes,

Jonathan Bartley and Caroline Lucas Co-Leaders - Green Party of England and Wales
