art for Japan : updated
I think a lot of people feel helpless with everything we’ve seen and read since last Friday. Some artists have quickly made special prints available as fundraisers, here are a few. (Will keep adding more as I find them – if you have anything to add to this please mention it in the comments.)
Over at 20×200 there are some prints for which all proceeds of the sale will benefit Japan Society’s Earthquake Relief Fund.
Shinjuku, 6:43, by Joseph O. Holmes
Tatsuro Kiuchi (木内 達朗) is offering digital files of 2 different illustrations in return for a donation to the red cross.
updates:
Pika Books is donating 100% of the net profit of their Chotto Omoshiroi poster (ちょっとおもしろい!) by artist Mogu Takahashi to the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies.
Illustrator/artist Hine is donating 50% of all the proceeds from her shop.
Hickoree’s Hard Good’s is raising funds with the beautiful woodblock-printed 和 pocket square.
A Public Space has released an English edition collecting stories from the Japanese literary journal Monkey Business, and 25% of proceeds are earmarked for the Japan Earthquake and Tsunami Relief Fund.
