London Art Fair draws in support for Terrence Higgins Trust

Terrence Higgins Trust (THT) has been lucky enough to be chosen as the official charity of the London Art Fair which runs 18-22 January, 2006. 

THT will be presenting ART ANON. at the fair. ART ANON. is an exclusive show of work by major artists and photographers including Tracey Emin, Anish Kapoor, Jack Vettriano, Mario Testino, Stella Vine, Paula Rego and Richard Long. 

The pieces will be exhibited without the artist’s name and guests will be able to guess which of our contributing artists or photographers has submitted each piece.  

All of the pieces in ART ANON. will be auctioned by Christie's with proceeds going directly to Terrence Higgins Trust. The auction will take place at the London Art Fair preview evening on Tuesday 17th January .

Debbie Holmes, Director of Fundraising for Terrence Higgins Trust said “We’re delighted to be the Art Fair’s official charity this year. ART ANON. is a fantastic idea which will raise much needed funds, helping people living with or affected by HIV. We’re so grateful to all the artists who kindly donated their work for this show. With such talent involved the auction is bound to be a big hit.”
