Hosted by London Miles Gallery the community installation is to help build a platform for emerging contemporary artist living in London. The project aims to bring together emerging artists in a community project that builds awareness about emerging artists in our community, contemporary art and the importance of recycling in our Generation.
The installation will be built inside the atrium area of Westbourne Studios. There will be an opening reception to celebrate the completed structure alongside an exhibition featuring the work of 45 recognized international artists. The opening reception will take place at Westbourne Studios ( 242 Acklam Road, London, W10 5JJ) on Thursday June 11th, 2010 from 7pm to 10pm and is open free to the public.
London Miles Gallery is hosting a silent auction at Westbourne Studios on Sunday the 4th of July to coincide with the closing of their international group show The Next Generation which takes place during Notting Hill’s Visual Arts Festival; an annual spotlight on local showcases and arts talent in one of London’s most vibrant areas.
The silent auction will sell off the individual recycled painted cardboard boxes, which have collectively formed a bright and colourful installation within the atrium of Westbourne Studios. The aim of the installation was to build a platform for up and coming artists living in London and beyond. The project’s goal was to raise awareness not only about the wealth of the artistic talent within the UK, but also the ecological importance of recycling within our boroughs.
All money raised from the silent auction will go directly to London Miles Gallery chosen charity - Kids Company. Kidsco provides practical, emotional and educational support to 14,000 vulnerable inner-city children across London. For many, the roles of adult and child are reversed and despite profound love, both struggle to survive. Kids Company therefore offers a safe, caring, family environment where support is tailored to the needs of each individual. Kidsco’s services support children who have experienced enormous challenges to lead positive and fulfilling lives. Despite the great difficulties they have endured during their lives, the children Kids Company work with are hugely courageous and embrace fully the support they offer.
London Miles Gallery will begin to take online bids on Monday the 28th of June at 9.30am. Each box will have a reserve price of £10. The boxes will be individually numbered on line; to place a bid on your preferred box please e-mail info@londonmiles.com with the box number as the subject title.
