The Brush Project! To raise money for
Gigi's Playhouse (a down syndrome awareness center), the
Rotofugi gallery in Chicago has started the
Brush Project - a charity auction where the merchandise isn't art, but the tools used to make art. Well known underground artists have donated - and signed - their paint brushes for the cause. Artists include surrealists
Mark Ryden,
Dan May,
Tara McPherson and many more.
Some artists have donated one brush, some a collection of brushes. Each has a tag with the artist's signature, a description of what the brush was used for and some even have an added personal design on the back of their tags by the donating artist. A collector's dream. Or as the
Rotofugi gallery put it, "the best chance you'll probably ever get to own a Mark Ryden original".
