ABOUT THE AUCTION

Art4Grenfell announces UK’s largest City-based charity art auction in aid of Grenfell Tower residents

Supported By Bonhams and RBS 

Colin Sheaf, Bonhams Chairman commented: “This will be an exhilarating art auction, with many acclaimed and noteworthy iconic artists from the UK and abroad kindly donating a painting or work of art to honour the victims of this tragic loss of life in London.”

The ‘Art4Grenfell’ group has been created to raise funds to support the homeless residents and survivors of the Grenfell fire tragedy. Organiser and founder Hercules Fisherman has brought together many esteemed London and international artists from around the world, whom have been touched by this tragedy. The sole objective is to raise as much money as possible through one of the UK’s largest Charity Art auctions which will be hosted at the RBS headquarters in the City of London with Colin Sheaf, Bonhams UK Chairman, as auctioneer. The auction was held on  Wednesday 21 February at The Atrium, 3rd Floor, 250 Bishopsgate EC2M 2AA

Every lot in the auction was listed and where possible illustrated online at our Auction Site provided by our supporting partner Donate platform. Hercules Fisherman, the organiser of Art4Grenfell commented: “We are overwhelmed with the response and have been generously donated works by over 100 artists for the auction on Wednesday 21st February. The donors include many well-known and respected names such as: Alison Hunter, Dame Zandra Rhodes, Andrew Logan, Chris Moon, Paul Freud, Boy George, Gilbert and George, Orlando Campbell, Darren Coffield and Jonty Hurwitz”.

The aim is to have as many eminent artists’ works as possible donated  in order to raise funds for the survivors and their families. All proceeds  from the auction will be donated through the K&C Foundation, a local independent charity based in North Kensington, which works with the local community to tackle inequalities and hardships faced by many across the Borough.  Following the tragic event at Grenfell Tower, the K&C Foundation set up a fundraising appeal for those affected by the Grenfell Tower tragedy.

“We are really grateful to Art4Grenfell for this initiative to raise funds for the survivors from Grenfell Tower.” commented Susan Dolton, Director of K&C Foundation.

Colin Sheaf, Bonhams Chairman commented: “This will be an exhilarating art auction, with many acclaimed and noteworthy iconic artists from the UK and abroad kindly donating a painting or work of art to honour the victims of this tragic loss of life in London.”

“We are proud to be associated with Art4Grenfell to collaborate with them in this effort. The K&C Foundation is a local independent charity based in North Kensington and has already raised £6 million for the Grenfell Tower Fund through generous public donations. The campaign was set up to provide emergency and on-going support to residents and others affected directly in the local community. £4.44 million has now been paid out to help the survivors of the Grenfell Tower tragedy and to the next of kin of those who lost their lives.

Although the event has ended we are having a raffle that will be going on for another few weeks and maybe other drives to keep the movement going.
