TOOLS FOR THOUGHT rebuild haiti draws on the will of artists to make a difference. This one-night event will contribute to the ongoing effort to help Haiti recover from a devastating earthquake. In the spirit of Marcel Duchamp and the readymade, members of the art world were invited to sign and donate an object at hand: tools from the studio, personally significant objects, or works of art. These donated works will help raise funds through a silent auction, the proceeds of which will go to the support of Haiti through Partners in Health. Via:[DESPOKE]
