The works of contemporary Ukrainian artists will be displayed at the charity auction.
Auction house Christie has planned a series of auctions in support of humanitarian initiatives in Ukraine, as well as projects engaged in the preservation of the country’s cultural heritage. This is stated in the official press release.
There are plans to hold three charity auctions to raise at least a million dollars. Proceeds will be divided in equal parts between the three organizations involved in humanitarian assistance and the protection of Ukraine’s cultural heritage. That is, the World Monuments Fund (WMF), Doctors Without Borders (MSF) and the CORE Foundation, created by actor Sean Penn.
It was noted that the works of contemporary Ukrainian artists will be displayed at charity auction.
Also, Christie plans to continue donations to the Red Cross of Ukraine and to the Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees.
Sonia Beckerman, Christie’s deputy head of business development, said Christie hopes to “attract buyers from around the world” but “continues to strictly adhere to the terms of sanctions and bans on the export of luxury goods to customers from Russia or Belarus. “
