Máté Tenke – cultural manager, Head and Heart of PP Green

Although the arts have centuries of experience in the struggle for freedom and human rights, they have yet to tackle the greatest collective challenge facing humanity: climate change. Its current toolkit is not up to the task, full of harmful topos such as the individualism of Romanticism, the image of the lonely hero, the fragmentation of modernism, the short-sightedness of today’s mainstream media, which make art incapable of rising to the task. I am interested in this challenge, which is also an opportunity for renewal that transforms both the ideological and practical tools of art.

Bálint

Bálint Antal – project manager

In my opinion, art should not exist for its own sake, it should be a tool that works towards an end goal. Such a goal could be the fight against climate change. What I enjoy the most about my work is that at PP Green, we strive to bring these two fields closer together while offering a platform to the artists and experts involved in our projects and helping our environment and the communities involved. In my projects, I try to build on the experiences I have gained in my personal life and in my artistic adventures, so a do-it-yourself attitude and a community-centered, participatory approach are particularly important to me.
