LES IS MORE CAMPAIGN: FINE ART AND PHOTOGRAPHY AUCTION TO RAISE FUNDS FOR LESLEY PERKES FROM ART@WORK

Lesley Joy Perkes (17 June 1961 – 13 February 2015) dedicated her life to providing access for every South African to arcane, mysterious and delightful products of the imagination. She made a powerful and energetic contribution to growing our understanding of the role and status of art – particularly public art.

Uncannily in tune with the establishment which she heckled, she worked tirelessly for dialogue and creative solutions to our most challenging problems. She consistently put art on the agenda.

At the time of her passing, Gallery MOMO was collaborating with artists, friends and concerned people to raise the funding to cover her hospital costs. As a testament to the love and respect that Lesley inspired, many artists donated works of art to Gallery MOMO for an auction of art – the proceeds of which will benefit her grieving family as well as keep her legacy alive.

#LESISMORECAMPAIGN Auction will take place at Gallery MOMO on Thursday 25 June 2015 | Preview: Tuesday 23 & Wednesday 24 June 2015
