November
Carbon Literacy for Heritage
Monday 3rd and Tuesday 4th November. 10.00 to 13.30 GMT.
Art, Luxury and Sustainability: Markets in Transition.
Friday 7th November. 9.00 to 19.00 GMT.
Sotheby’s Institute of Art, Bedford Square London WC1B 3EE.
Environmental sustainability has become one of the defining challenges facing both the art world and the luxury sector. As global awareness of climate change, resource scarcity, and ethical production grows, the traditional structures of art and luxury organisations are being re-examined and reshaped. Businesses, institutions, artists, and luxury brands are navigating how to balance environmental responsibilities with market demands, and evolving consumer expectations.
Building on the growing momentum across the creative and luxury industries, this one-day conference invites critical engagement with the challenges, contradictions, and opportunities that sustainability presents to these sectors. It seeks to highlight real-world action, interrogate barriers to meaningful change, and explore how existing models must evolve—or be replaced—to meet the demands of a carbon-constrained and ethically complex future.
