    COAL PRIZE 2014

    Lucie & Simon, Silent world, Paris 2009.

    COAL Prize 2014 was awarded in Paris on April 10, 2014 at Musée de la Chasse et de la Nature to the artist Åsa Sonjasdotter for her project High Diversity. For this fifth edition, COAL Prize’s theme was PARIS.

    The French capital has a great many environmental and social issues: pollution, energy, urban sprawl, transport, land, erosion of biodiversity, adaptation to the climate change, etc. A creative approach to ecology is emerging in new social organizations, alternative production methods, and collaborative ways of living and working which promote user-friendliness as well as an appreciation of the simpler things in life. Having been for a long time the City of Light, the symbol of industrial modernity and progress, will Paris be able to shine again by embodying ecological post modernity?

    In 2014, Paris, one of the major global capitals of culture and creation, is inviting artists to show together the central role that art can play in a sustainable and responsible city. Artists, mostly urban, heirs to the diversity embodied by Paris, are invited to shake up, rethink and reinvent the capital in a multipolar connected world in order to define a fairer and more radiant urban culture, in harmony with nature.
