Call
Our logo expresses the wasteful handling of the world. We live and do business as if we had a second world at our disposal. Our name Group Global 3000 shows that people act locally, think globally and for the future together. We work for the “best of both worlds”.
For our 10th anniversary, we invite the 350 artists who have exhibited with us to date to submit works for our juried group exhibition, “Light on Your Feet,” in our exhibition space. Artists or groups of artists can apply with max. apply for three works. Participation in the limited call is by invitation only.
The works should have as small an ecological footprint (EF) as possible with their material.
The EF is related to the work, not to the artists’ lifestyle. The EF cannot and does not have to be calculated. Part of the application is a credible justification as to why the works EF is small.
Z. E. The works are made of 100% recycled material, come from their own archive, fundus, from waste, from Berlin HDM, from Berlin Kunststoffe e.V., use used canvas, natural pigments.
No new resources are used. Possible are tools such as glue, nails. We exclude NEW electronics, photos, digital prints, Kapa, Aludibond. Existing can be used.
The title of the work could have a close relation to sustainability. See our preliminary work as a suggestion, not a requirement.
In our workshops we have gathered sustainable practice from visual artists.
Disciplines
Object, sculpture, installation, photo, painting, drawing, printmaking, video with credits, audio is possible. A performative contribution such as a performance, VJ or similar to the vernissage, artist talk or finissage is desired.
International works
Unfortunately, we can no longer accept parcels from outside the EU. The processing and communication effort, the shipping costs, the transit times were too long and the timely delivery in Berlin was too difficult. We are happy to accept letters and videos from non-EU countries.

Our goal is to reduce the ecological footprint through our art. In this way, we would like to reduce the footprint of art and influence society in this sense.
