The Mending Broken Hearts Appeal is one of the most important fundraising efforts ever undertaken by the British Heart Foundation. Its goal is simple; to raise £50 million to fund the cutting-edge cardiac-regenerative research that could literally ‘mend the broken hearts’ of millions.
Antony Micallef, Sir Peter Blake, Maggi Hambling, Gavin Turk, Jonathan Yeo, and Gary Hume are amongst the group of artists using their vision to campaign for the Appeal. The artists have been given completely free-rein in what they create, as long as it is inspired by 'mending broken hearts'; the result is a collection of artwork that while based on a shared concept reflects the diversity and personal style of each of the artists involved. These artworks will be auctioned at a gala evening in the Dorchester Hotel on 14th April in association with Christie's Auction House. For more information about the auction, to purchase tickets or to request a catalogue please contact 50th@bhf.org.uk or telephone 0207 5540317.
