commissioning, selling, loaning and education

The Foundation is a charitable organisation which operates by way of a rigorous commissioning process. Approximately 20 new monumental works, predominantly by contemporary British sculptors, are produced annually.

Once a work has been placed the Foundation splits the profit between the artist and the next commission thereby ensuring that it maintains its reputation as a progenitor of twenty-first century British sculpture.

To date, the Foundation has commissioned 160 monumental works from over 120 artists which have been placed in public and private collections all over the world. The Foundation has paid nine million pounds to British artists in order to further their careers.
