A charity art auction held at the Lili Gallery in Tienmu on Sept. 5, raising a remarkable half million NT dollars (about US$16,000) for victims of Typhoon Morakot.
Nineteen artists, both expatriate and Taiwanese, participated in the event, 10 a.m. to 10 p.m. on Saturday. Painters brought their own supplies and were given a large (100 x 150cm) canvas to work with when they arrived, filling up two floors of the uptown bar/restaurant with the pleasant spectacle of artists hard at work, side by side for a good cause. It was creativity in action, a wonderful sight to behold for visitors who flowed through the living museum throughout the day, at times with children in tow. Silent and online auctions were also held. (Excerpt from Trista di Genova’s article in The Wild East, September 25, 2009)
