Running from Thursday 9 – Thursday 23 November, we have the Art on a Postcard Winter Auction. With a fantastic selection of nearly 600 works, starting at just £50, the proceeds from the auction will be donated to the Hepatitis C Trust and their vital unfunded helpline. This year, six luminaries in the art world were invited to curate the auction, including arts producer, project manager, and art advisor and dealer, Frankie Shea.
Born and based in London, Shea is known as both a committed mentor and discerning producer of public art and has curated a rich programme of educational workshops, film screenings, talks, and commissions such as the ambitious, large scale Living-Walls, London public art project for Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park.
His passion for and interest in alternative subcultures and aesthetics was integral to the development of Shoreditch’s art scene, as well as the exhibitions he organised at various London galleries and UK institutions.
In 2010, he founded Moniker Projects, which provides platforms for urban and outsider art forms. Moniker Projects funded, curated and produced the inaugural Moniker Art Fair, the first-of-its-kind fair that uniquely exhibited works with roots in urban culture.
Innovator Frankie Shea of Moniker Projects, is known for founding, funding, and producing the first annual art fair rooted in urban culture, street art, and graffiti. For Art on a Postcard, Frankie has curated an impressive selection of artists championing Bristol's graffiti heritage such as Nick Walker, Sickboy, and Hugo Farmer, interdisciplinary artists Faith47 and Fa Razavi, and the prolific and notorious writers TOX and 10FOOT. Here we pick out 5 lots.
This is a timed online auction running from Thursday 9 - Thursday 23 November 2023.
Bidding starts at £50. There is no buyer's premium applicable on lots in this auction.
"You must not reproduce, duplicate, copy, sell, resell or exploit any works. In doing so, you endanger our relationships with artists, and directly jeopardise the charitable work we do." ~ Art on a Postcard
