Michiel Schwarz and Joost Elffers proclaim “Sustainism” as the new culture of the 21st century. With their “cultural manifesto” they have added a new word to the dictionary. In this event they present a visual vocabulary for the new cultural movement, and show what makes Sustainism the next “big idea” in how we shape our future.
The book Sustainism Is the New Modernism declares the dawn of a new cultural era, as we transition from modernity to sustainity—towards a world that is more connected, more localist, more digital and more sustainable. Sustainism in the twenty-first century will be what modernism was in the last. It will (re-)shape our culture, from the design of our cities and homes, to our technologies and our life-styles. Through a series of graphically dynamic aphorisms and visual symbols Michiel Schwarz and Joost Elffers chart the new realities of a Sustainist world. With this concise manifesto, they launch “Sustainism,” the concept and the word, into the public consciousness.
Copies of Sustainism Is the New Modernism: A Cultural Manifesto for the Sustainist Era are available for purchase and signing at the event.
