The Artists
Beezy Bailey
Co-Founder, Art for Africa
Art for Africa celebrates the close historical relationship between South Africa and the United Kingdom, in a collaboration of leading contemporary artists in one show and auction.
As an artist, I feel that the link between the extreme privilege and wealth of Europe and the poverty of Africa is art. As artists, we plumb the depths of despair and fly with the angels in our quest to make art. With 'Art for Africa' through the compassion of the artists, we live up to Picasso's statement that 'art is love made real'. Our art is used as a means to raise much-needed funds while enriching the lives of those who have been fortunate enough to acquire it.
