walewein Posted October 18, 2009 Share Posted October 18, 2009 Last summer, the management of Belgian based festival Rock Werchter offered Rozemarijn, an organisation providing care and a home for the mentally challenged, the opportunity to set up a tent in the artists' village, the inner sanctum of the festival, usually a no-go area for those not performing. Artists were given a chance to paint a plaster face, these will be auctioned off October 22 in Antwerp, Belgium. There is a possibility to bid online, I suppose. Amongst the artists/groups coorperating are: Lily Allen, Bloc Party, Elbow, Fleet Foxes, Franz Ferdinand, Kaiser Chiefs, Oasis, Nick Cave, Placebo and last but not least Coldplay. Chris Martin drew a picture of all four coldplay members and all of them signed it as well. Estimates are below 150 euros per lot but as this is a charity auction, the organisation would be pleased to collect 50.000 euros. There's a link, including pictures, below. Happy bidding! http://www.bernaerts.be/nl/Page_catalogue.asp?sale=120&dayid=411&photo=1&lotx=2000&loty=2048 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
