>This open call exhibition and online art auction will benefit the Robin Hood Foundation of New York City while making a statement about the proliferation of such exhibitions and activities and the prices at commercial auctions "uptown". Individuals may place bids on the works of art in increments of $10 by visiting the apex art website at www.apexart.org or by visiting exhibition.
The exhibition will close August 11, and the auction will close August 10 at 6pm.
apexart asked the Robin Hood Foundation to be the recipient of all proceeds from the online auction because of their important work in targeting poverty in New York City. Robin Hood's work comes in many forms, partnering with more than 240 of the most successful poverty-fighting nonprofit organizations in New York City, and initiating and running projects when it sees unmet community needs. The Foundation also created and operates a 9/11 Relief Fund. While there is great diversity among these programs, they all have one thing in common: they work.
