Charity Auction inc. Whatson, Kunstrasen, ABC, AZA, RYCA , by 1743art on Aug 29, 2016 15:02:42 GMT 1, Hey Guys,
As some of you know i am organizing a charity auction for a charity called Focus 12. They provide residential care for people dependent on drugs and alcohol. The reason i have chosen this charity is that 6 months ago i received the shocking news that one of my close friends had passed away from a drug overdose. He had struggled with addiction for a long time but Focus 12 in his mothers words 'gave me back my son for 1 more year'. I found this an incredibly powerful statement and felt i would be able to do a little by way of raising some much needed money for this charity.
Its taken a while but i now have confirmed dontaions from Martin Whatson, Kunstrasen, ABC, 1743, RoboJ, Zanda, David Slebodnick and some others. Further donations are still going to be coming in.
I would like to get these auctions underway at some point in September.
If anyone would like to donate anything art related and i mean anything (every little helps) then please get in contact by sending me a message on here or an email at seventeen43@outlook.com i know few of you did want to when i first mentioned the auction a while ago.
I am currently in the process of getting some promo material together so once i have that then i will put it out there and hopefully people can pass it around for lots of people to view.
Please get in contact if you want to know more or to donate.
Daniel

Please take ten minutes out of your busy life and watch this video.
The video was made by Mark Gibson, or "Skip" as we knew him. Like me he was a skater growing up in the 80s in Margate. I met him many times over the years as he used to film our skate jams, and a very talented media man he was too. Up until last year (2015) when he died many of us didn't realise that he was an severe alcoholic. What made our skate community even more devastated was the fact that no one had seen this video until after he had passed away,I suppose it was his final offering to the world and his admission he was to far gone.
The loss of Skip, a good friend to many is the reason I am donating a little art. Maybe just maybe the next Mark can be saved before it gets to the above stage.

That Aphex Twin track in the 2nd half is really emotive, from Ambient Works 2.
1743 I look forward to the auction, seems like a very good cause.

Charity Auction inc. Whatson, Kunstrasen, ABC, AZA, RYCA , by 1743art on Sept 27, 2016 13:55:13 GMT 1, So after many months of planning i feel confident enough to say that these auctions will start on 16th October. They will run for 1 week and will all start without reserves.
Its been hard organising a lot of artists but i can now say im nearly there. The artists involved have all been very generous and i cant wait for you all to see some of the amazing work that has been donated. I will be uploading photos of the work between now and the start of the auctions. Below is the Promo material for the Auction and here is a link to the charity website ( www.focus12.co.uk/ ) Please have a look at the website and please feel free to share the event flyer where ever you can. The more exposure we get the better it will be for the charity. I am still waiting for pics of some of the donations from some of the artists but as i said once i have them then i will make them available for you to view. I am still taking donations (literally as im writing this My Dog Sighs just messaged saying he would donate something) therefore if any one would like to donate anything at all however small then please dont hesitate to message me on here or at seventeen43@outlook.com and we can include that in the auction.

I have just heard back from the family and for personal reasons they have decided to lock the film. I can only assume this is due to the shock of their loss plus it's a very emotional subject at the moment. If that changes I will update.

And great work by all the donators - there is some fantastic work there, particularly from some of our very own Forum artists.
