The Common Ground Partnership combines new media, art and philanthropy to focus attention on – and raise money for - environmental projects worldwide.

Common Ground is an online community of artists, designers, galleries, curators, art patrons, art institutions, art consumers and concerned corporate citizens.

The Common Ground exhibition will take place every 2 years to coincide with the host city of the Summer and Winter Olympic games.

The 2008 Common Ground Collection will premier in Beijing at the Huan Tie Art Museum. The opening reception will include works from renowned artists from over 40 countries, a special selection of 20 gifted Chinese artists, and screenings of several innovative films, all with works focused on the environment.

A worldwide single printing of 800 hardcover books featuring the Common Ground 2008 collection has been published with the support of HP and A&I Digital Services. All proceeds from the book will be donated to Common Ground's Non-Profit Partners: The World Wildlife Fund, Global Giving, and the Global Environmental Institute.

Common Ground is pleased to invite distinguished guests and the entire Beijing community to its opening reception on Sunday, November 9th, at Huan Tie Times Art Museum.
