WW Gallery Xmas BOGOF

I have a piece of work in the WW Gallery Xmas BOGOF fundraiser 19 – 21 December. Do come along and add your support / solve your Christmas present problems / enjoy the event.

The Xmas BOGOF features an eclectic range of works donated by 100 of the best emerging and established artists on the contemporary art scene. Many of them have won or been selected for major awards such as the Jerwood, Threadneedle, John Moores, Marmite and are in major collections such as Deutsche Bank, Saatchi and the V&A.

The BOGOF is a fundraising event in aid of WW Projects non-profit initiatives, so seize the opportunity to start or build upon your collection while investing in WW and its wide network of artists.

To keep logistical and administrative costs to a minimum, none of the BOGOF works will be viewable online. The sale will begin at 6pm on Wednesday 19th December and close at 4pm on Saturday 22nd December, at WW Gallery, 34/35 Hatton Garden, London EC1N 8DX, Farringdon Tube.
