On Tuesday the 14th of September 2010, the SCOOP Foundation will host their 2nd annual Art Auction & Exhibition in the hope of raising €35,000 in order to build a brand new, three floored, concrete built school in Cambodia that will not only create a place to educate up to 250 local Cambodian children, it will also become the centre for a community in an impoverished area outside Phnom Pehn.
So in order to try and raise the funds needed for a school they are gathering art from all around Ireland and the exhibition and subsequent auction (on Sunday the 19th of September) will be quite unique as it will blend together some of the most well known Irish artists, with the best new comers, street art artists, photographers and everything in between. The exhibition will launch on the 14th of September with a reception in the beautiful Ormond Wine Bar.
I look forward to exhibiting with the foundation, and hopefully helping them raise funds to support their ongoing work. One of my paintings, Dalkey I, will be auctioneed off on the 19th.
