Art Alert

Art Alert is a collective of artists, designers, teachers, students and others with an interest in art and the environment.  We specialise in staging performance art events on environmental themes using re-used and recycled materials.

Over the last ten years we have worked with a wide range of clients and delivered everything from management training to major interactive art installations (and a great deal in-between).  Recent clients include:  The Worldwide fund for nature (WWF), the Royal Society for the Protection of Birds (RSPB), Coventry City Council, Swansea City Council and the David Shepherd Conservation Foundation.

The size and composition of an Art Alert event team varies immensely from one project to another as both are determined by client need, the nature of the project and the budget.  When a client wishes to use an event as an opportunity to train their own staff and/or volunteers we only use a core team.  When a client wishes Art Alert to handle all aspects of an installation,  we supply all the staff necessary to run the event.

This site showcases two of our larger projects from recent years, both of which took place in 1997, Africa Alert and Ocean Alert.  Follow the links for a description of each of the projects, plans & schematics, photographs and videos.  Regrettably, due to bandwidth limitations, the video clips are not available on the web version of this site.  If you would like a copy of our demo CD-ROM (PC format) or video (VHS), please send your request to one of the addresses below.
