Children's Charity, Dramatic Need has galvanised leading artists from the contemporary art world, to create original pieces that will be exhibited and auctioned on 27th November. The works are inspired by the real life experiences of children in Rwanda and South Africa, grappling with the aftermath of war, violence and poverty. The works will be previewed by auction partner, Paddle 8 and include original work from artists including Anthony Gormley, Anish Kapoor, Jake and Dinos Chapman and Turner prize winner Rachel Whiteread. Each artist has been moved and inspired by the personal stories of children to create sculptures, drawings, photographs and paintings. The artworks will be auctioned at Victoria Miro Gallery on 27th November, 2013.
