Madonna Announces David Blaine As December Guest Curator For Art For Freedom

Madonna has confirmed David Blaine as the December guest curator for Art for Freedom. Guest curators collaborate with Madonna to select daily submissions to be showcased on artforfreedom.com.


"Madonna, who has always been an incredible inspiration, invited me to be a part of Art for Freedom. It's an amazing platform to bring artists together and I look forward to seeing the brilliance this generates."

"I am excited David is signing on as guest curator. This is only the beginning of Art for Freedom bringing artists together to change the world." commented Madonna.

As part of the Art For Freedom initiative, David Blaine will work with Madonna to select one artist from their respective month whose creative expression demonstrates a unique view of the fight for human rights. Madonna will then award a $10,000 grant to a nonprofit organization of the winning artist's choice. All projects must be focused on the values of Art For Freedom.

The latest freedom fighters chosen to receive an Art for Freedom grant are Amber Fares and the Speed Sisters - a documentary about the Middle East's first all women motor racing team. Against a backdrop of social and political upheaval, Speed Sisters presents an inspiring look into the drive to be true to oneself. The grant will go towards finishing the film.
