    Tetra Strategy ‘proud’ sponsors of Royal College of Art secret auction

    In November 2007, Tetra Strategy sponsored the Royal College of Art’s highly acclaimed ‘RCA Secret’.

    RCA Secret is an annual contemporary art exhibition consisting of around 2,500 original postcard-sized artworks, made and donated by professional artists, designers and illustrators, plus up-and-coming graduates from the Royal College of Art. The cards are all sold to the public in a huge sale, with every postcard costing just £40, regardless of whether it has been made by Damien Hirst, Tracey Emin or a young art student.

    The RCA received enormous support from hundreds of leading international artists and designers who contribute to the event each year. Previous sales have included postcards by David Hockney, Damien Hirst, Sir Peter Blake, Sam Taylor-Wood, David Bailey, Julian Opie, Olafur Eliasson, Tracey Emin, Paula Rego and Sir Paul McCartney to name just a few.

    As in previous years all money raised went to the Royal College of Art Fine Art Student Award Fund. To date, sales of postcards have raised nearly £1 million for the Fund, helping hundreds of emerging artists at a formative stage in their careers.

    Commenting on Tetra Strategy’s sponsorship, CEO James O’Keefe said: “As an avid fan we were immensely proud to sponsor what has now become an established date in the British art calendar.”
