Cape Farewell is an artist led organisation that works to create an urgent cultural response to climate change. Launched by David Buckland in 2001 with a series of ground-breaking artist and scientist manned expeditions to the Arctic, Cape Farewell has become an international not-for-profit programme based at the University of the Arts London: Chelsea.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.capefarewell.com/ )〕 〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.treehugger.com/author/cape-farewell/ )〕 〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.eci.ox.ac.uk/news/press-releases/090612-capefarewell.pdf )〕 〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.bestclimatepractices.org/ProjectDetails.aspx?ID=12&Lan=en-US&Search=Yes )〕 Cape Farewell aims to change the way people think about climate change, and to widely communicate, educate and inspire action on the need for urgent, and achievable, change. Cape Farewell engages with our greatest creative, scientific and visionary minds to work together with clean technology entrepreneurs, sociologists and universities to achieve the non-carbon society we must all aspire to.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.capefarewell.com/about.html )〕 In 15 years Cape Farewell have supported over 300 artists in the research and creation of artworks. For example, Marcus Coates’ 'The Sound of Others' opened the Manchester Science Festival in partnership with The Museum of Science and Industry (MOSI) in 2014; Guy Martin installed Forcey's Tower, Dorset, 2014; Sabrina Mahfouz completed her poetry residency with performances at the London School of Economics and the Southbank Centre; and SWITCH showcased young climate poets in partnership with the Royal Shakespeare Company, Stratford.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://capefarewell.com/art.html )〕 Cape Farewell is a partner organisation, working with major cultural institutions – such as the Natural History Museum, Science Museum, Tidal Lagoon Swansea, Tate, Eden Project, Royal Academy, Maritime Museum and Southbank Centre - to create new and challenging artworks that explore and highlight the urgency of climate change and bring the vital conversation around environmental sustainability into the public domain.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://capefarewell.com/art/past-projects.html )〕 ==Expeditions== Cape Farewell uses expeditions – Arctic, island, urban and conceptual – to look into the scientific, social and economic realities that lead to climate disruption. Since 2003 Cape Farewell has led eight expeditions to the Arctic, two to the Scottish Islands, and one to the Peruvian Andes, including two youth expeditions, taking creatives, scientists, educators and communicators to experience the effects of climate change first hand. Discoveries found on the trips are recorded and relayed through scientific experiments, live web broadcasts, film, events, exhibitions and the overall insights of artists and educators. These expeditions resulted in an incredible and varied body of artworks, exhibitions, publications and educational resources. Each journey is a catalyst for all subsequent activity.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://capefarewell.com/the-expeditions.html )〕 An expedition was made in September 2008 to Disko Bay on the west coast of Greenland, in partnership with the National Oceanography Centre, Southampton, The University of Southampton and British Geological Survey. Scientists onboard extended their investigations into climate whilst artists, writers, and communicators kept blogs posting their response. The crew included musicians Jarvis Cocker, Leslie Feist, Laurie Anderson, Vanessa Carlton, Robyn Hitchcock, Ryuichi Sakamoto, KT Tunstall, Martha Wainwright, Luke Bullen, and beatboxer Shlomo,comedian Marcus Brigstocke, composer Jonathan Dove, theatre makers Mojisola Adebayo, Suzan-Lori Parks, visual artists Kathy Barber, David Buckland, Sophie Calle, Jude Kelly, Michèle Noach, Tracey Rowledge, Julian Stair, Shiro Takatani, Chris Wainwright, architects Francesca Galeazzi, and Sunand Prasad, poet Lemn Sissay, photographer Nathan Gallagher, BBC presenter Quentin Cooper, Senior Lecturer (Open University), Joe Smith, activist David Noble, media executive Lori Majewski and film director Peter Gilbert.
