DIANA AL-HADID, LARRY BELL, AND OTHERS DONATE WORKS FOR ARTADIA FUNDRAISER

In honor of the twentieth anniversary of Artadia, the nonprofit organization that supports artists with unrestricted, merit-based awards, Phillips will hold a benefit auction on May 15. Fourteen artists have donated works for the event.

The sale will offer pieces by contemporary artists Diana Al-Hadid, Larry Bell, Katherine Bernhardt, Joe Bradley, Cecily Brown, Sarah Crowner, Roe Ethridge, Shara Hughes, Caitlin Keogh, Shio Kusaka, Tala Madani, Angel Otero, Walter Price, and Jonas Wood.

“Since its founding twenty years ago, Artadia has enriched the lives and careers of over three hundred artists,” said Rebekah Bowling, specialist and head of day sales at Phillips. “Through the sale of these works at auction, we can help to ensure that this important organization can continue in their mission for the next two decades and beyond.”

Commenting on the auction, Carolyn Ramo, Artadia’s executive director, said, “Artists are the integral fabric of our communities and cultural conversation, and we are deeply grateful to the donating artists who allow us to raise crucial funds.”
