Save the beach

H.A. Schult, la basura es arte

This 63 year old German artist is the designer of the “Corona Save the Beach Hotel”. Since 1969 the artist of “trash” has surprised the world with his installations based on the waste produced by our society.

His famous “trash men” have travelled the world exposing the degradation to which our earth is being subjected. From the pyramids of Egypt to the Plaza Real of Barcelona, Schult has sent his message to save the environment to all.

“The philosophy of this hotel is to expose the damage we are causing to the sea and the coastline (…) We live in the era of trash and we are running the risk of becoming trash ourselves. Do we really want this world?, asks Schult. No one better than Schult to express what we want to communicate with this initiative.
