Annabel Keenan's timely and urgent book reviews the work that has been undertaken to date to create a more sustainable art world and proposes the next steps in system-wide change. It identifies the main sustainability issues for the art industry, arguing that artists and art activists have led the way in creating awareness of climate change, and evaluates progress to date on climate-action commitments by the various sectors of the art world, offering examples of best practice.

Uncompromising in its messages, Climate Action in the Art World is essential reading for all art professionals, from artists to curators to art handlers, as well as for anyone seeking an accessible entry-point to a topic which is unfortunately only getting (literally) hotter.
