Also there is an environmental art museum at http://greenmuseum.org/ which is rather impressive. It is awesome. Also add Gitana Rose in Brooklyn for another environmentally friendly gallery. They can be found at: http://www.gitanarosa.com/

Another idea for artists interested in making an impact with art, not their carbon footprint: Encaustic. Using natural beeswax, natural tree resin, and other organic materials it’s also non-toxic and biodegradable. And the finished paintings have incredible texture and a translucent surface.
