Good, Clean, Fun(draising)...

4 April 2011

We managed to raise £85K for Camden Arts Centre in my patented '24 Hour Auction' where all my friends were asked to empty out their 'art store cupboards' and donate towards the auction. Everyone’s generosity totally amazed me, with donations coming from Alexandre De Cunha, Amir Shariat, Stefan Ratibor and Gagosian, Rob Diament and Carl Freedman, Thomas Dane and Francois Chantala, Nicky Verber and Michael Dean. We were out in full support for our lovely Jenni Lomax at Camden Arts Centre.
