Wolfgang Tillmans, Martin Parr and More Join Anti-Racism Photography Fundraiser
Raising money for three UK-based organizations.
Over 100 leading photographers from around the world have teamed up to take part in a fundraiser for various anti-racism organizations. Names including Wolfgang Tillmans, Martin Parr and Renell Medrano have all donated work, alongside up-and-comers including Joshua Woods, Kai-Isaiah Jamal and Benjamin Huseby, creative director of GmbH.
Each of the photographers involved has contributed images from their archives, with each print priced at £100 GBP (approximately $125 USD). The organizers behind the Anti-Racism Photography Fundraiser have also added that there will be a series of special announcements regarding artist editions in the near future.
In a statement launching the fundraiser, the project’s organizers said, “Racism is a deeply rooted British issue. As the Black Lives Matter movement continues to lead the fight for equality, the decision to operate under the banner of Anti-Racism is a call for the creative world, and the world at large, to fight racism everywhere it exists, while empowering the organisations and charities already doing this work.”
Take a look through some of the editions that will be available in the gallery above and visit the Anti-Racism Photography Fundraiser site for more information. All proceeds minus production and shipping costs will be donated to The Black Curriculum, Black Minds Matter and Exist Loudly.
In other art news, VaultWorks is selling never-before-seen photographs of various music legends.
