“May art once again become a Beacon of Light for all humanity”
Sofie Berzon Mackie, Co-Curator, Kibbutz Be’eri Gallery
Please join us at BFAMI’s “Beacon of Light” Dinner and Art Auction on Thursday 25th January 2024 honouring Jenny Saville RA with the support of Sotheby’s and The Dorchester.
All proceeds from this year’s event will go towards BFAMI’s emergency relief educational and art therapy programmes ran by the art museums in Israel, supporting the communities affected by the events that took place in October. Programmes include: art day camps for medical teams; art workshops for evacuated families and the supply of art therapy kits. All of these programmes are so needed to help with the collective trauma.
BFAMI will also be adding its support to the rebuilding of the art gallery at Kibbutz Be’eri’ following the torching of this beautiful art space. During the dinner we are delighted that we will be joined by the Galleries director and curator, Sofie Berzon Mackie, who will share her plans for a future filled with light, hope and art.
Our auction preview exhibition will be held at Sotheby’s, London on 18th-24th January 2024 09:00 – 16:30 (exc weekend), culminating with the live and silent auction at the Dinner.
