An original artwork by the artist Liu Bolin has been commissioned by LVMH, which will be auctioned for the Robert-Debré Hospital, as part of LVMH Dîner des Maisons engagées. All funds will go to the Hospital to support research into sickle cell disease, and improve the daily lives of children.
Entitled l'Arbre de vie (The Tree of Life), the work features the artist and a child patient from the hospital, who merge into a backdrop made up of a dozen drawings of children being treated at the Robert Debré hospital.
The auction takes place as part of the Contemporary Discoveries sale at Sotheby's Paris 12 – 20 February 2024.
