Project No. 1
Preserving The Beauty
Preserving The Beauty
of The Planet
Using art as a cultural force, evidence and provocation for climate change reversal.
The Blunt Truth
Climate change is not a vague or distant threat, it is the systematic destruction of the planet’s biosphere. This collapse undermines biodiversity, disrupts economies, and diminishes the quality of life for everyone on Earth. It’s not just about warming - it’s about loss.
The Challenge
Despite the mounting evidence, meaningful change is slow. Many people still don’t fully grasp humanity’s impact on the planet. Others do, but face powerful economic incentives to maintain the status quo—whether it’s the high cost of green solutions or the entrenched dependence on fossil fuels.
Our Thesis
We believe that if people, especially those in power, could see the effects of climate change with clarity and imagine what a sustainable future looks like, we could open a real, transformative dialogue about what must change.
The Role of Project No. 1
Project No. 1 exists to deliver that message. We use art to present concrete evidence - emotional, visual, and data-informed. To the right people. In the right place. At the right time.
Through collaboration with artists, artisans, and scientists, we reveal both the damage being done and the beauty still worth saving. We bring these works to collectors, cultural institutions, and most importantly, to decision-makers whose choices will determine the course of our shared future.
Project No. 1 has 4 Core Divisions
Starting with initiative, ending with community
The Forum
The Archive
The Gallery
The Circle
The Forum
This is where we do the work that really matters, the work that extends well beyond ourselves. Strategic partnerships, artist fellowships, and initiatives that extend beyond the walls. It’s the gallery’s compass for change, aligning art with policy, advocacy, and systems transformation.
The Archive
A living archive, preserving the work, the process, and the purpose behind each piece. It serves as both historical record and educational resource, ensuring the art’s purpose and impact are clear and available.
The Gallery
Our curated exhibition space to showcase artist’s most urgent, moving, and important work. This is where our dialogue begins, exposing an audience to the beauty of the planet and the consequences of our presence on it.
The Circle
Tailored services to collectors, curators, and institutions—ensuring each acquisition is not just purchased, but preserved, understood, and meaningfully placed. This division connects patrons with works that align with both vision and values.
