Christie's will auction four contemporary artworks during its Fall Marquee Week on November 20, 2025, benefiting the Clooney Foundation for Justice (CFJ), founded by George and Amal Clooney. Three works were donated by female artists—Caroline Walker, Flora Yukhnovich, and Ulala Imai—with estimates ranging from $20,000 to $50,000; a fourth piece by Roni Horn will be offered through Christie's private sales division. The auction takes place during the Post-War and Contemporary Art Day Sale, with a public viewing at Christie's Rockefeller Center starting November 7.
This sale matters because it leverages the high-profile art market to fund CFJ's global legal aid work defending women's rights and free speech. By partnering with Christie's and featuring works by prominent contemporary female artists, the event highlights how philanthropy and the art world can intersect to support social justice causes, while also drawing attention to the artists' distinct visual storytelling approaches.
