Art on a Postcard

Bidding Open 22nd June - 6th July | Online via Dreweatts 

Art on a Postcard (AOAP), well known for its unique fundraising initiatives, is delighted to announce its fifth annual Summer Auction in support of The Hepatitis C Trust. The auction boasts an extraordinary line-up of emerging talents and established names in the art world including Corrina Button, whose multidisciplinary practice encompasses painting, sculpture and printmaking and whose work has been the subject of numerous solo exhibitions over the last two decades; Jeremy Deller, an AOAP-favourite and celebrated English conceptual artist and Turner Prize winner; rising star Kora Mora Rojo, whose vibrant symbolic paintings have been exhibited in Mexico, Milan and London, with an upcoming debut solo show later this year.
Joining the roster is Zimbabwean-born artist Tafadzwa Masudi, whose poignant portraits exploring the diaspora experience have garnered widespread acclaim and were recently featured in a solo show at JD Malat Gallery and at 1-54 London; British printmaker Kate Gibb, known for her captivating music sleeve artworks, most notably for The Chemical Brothers; and Irish painter Paul Nugent, whose uniquely layered paintings have been exhibited worldwide, including a solo exhibition at the VOLTA, New York.
The auction features a host of notable emerging talent on the cusp of greatness including current RCA MA student Jiwon Cha, whose thought-provoking artworks delve into the intricate relationship between landscapes and our sense of belonging; Ayumi Matsuma, a graduate of the New York Academy of Art, who has exhibited her artworks at prestigious galleries such as Flowers Gallery, Art Miami, and Sotheby's, New York; and recent RCA graduate Alya Hatta, whose practice explores the Southeast Asian identity through the interplay of colour and form.
Another rising star, British artist Molly Brocklehurst, presents her nostalgic paintings inspired by her new home in Austin, Texas. Brocklehurst's signature muted palette creates artworks that blur the boundary between documentation and fiction, weaving narratives that are simultaneously soothing and unsettling.
The auction proudly features Royal Academicians including Katherine Jones RA, whose painterly prints have been included in collections such as the Victoria and Albert Museum and the Boston Athenaeum, and sculptor Peter Randall-Page RA, whose large-scale works and commissions have won him the Marsh Award for Public Sculpture. As ever, we are thrilled to welcome back long-standing AOAP supporters including Otto Schade, Joanna Whittle and Martyn Brewster.
