Catalogue Note

ART AGAINST KNIVES was formed 5 years ago following the stabbing of Oliver Hemsley, a 21-year-old student from Central Saint Martin’s College of Art & Design. In the summer of 2008 Oliver was stabbed eight times by six young men in an unprovoked attack, leaving him paralysed. The charity began life as an exhibition organised by Oliver’s friends, and fellow students to raise money and awareness. The event gained support from some of the biggest names in art and fashion.

Over the past 4 years we have developed creative community projects for young people living in areas of London affected by violent crime. Through creative opportunities we support young people in making a permanent positive change and work with them and their communities to reduce the current culture of violent crime.

We are extremely grateful for the support of Sotheby’s on this important initiative and would like to thank Sir Antony Gormley and Wolfgang Tillmans for their generous donations. The funds raised will allow us to continue to develop creative projects and reach more young people in need of support and opportunity.
