Fossil Free Culture is a collective of artists, activists, researchers and critics working at the intersection of art and climate activism. Their goal is to confront oil and gas sponsorship of public cultural institutions in the Netherlands. They are committed to eroding the fossil fuel industry’s public image and their social license to operate. Through unsolicited art performances in institutions that accept such sponsorship, they expose the ecological and social devastation that the fossil fuel industry inflicts on the planet and lay bare the way these cultural institutions actively sanitise the reputation of companies like Royal Dutch Shell.
