I don’t know Justin Van Hoy, but I do know a good cause when I see one…
Poketo studio will be holding a silent art auction titled, “F%#k Cancer We Love Justin” to benefit the recovery of artist Justin Van Hoy, who has been battling cancer for the second time. Over forty renowned Los Angeles artists will be donating their work including artists Shepard Fairey, Saelee Oh, Chris Bettig, Tim Biskup, Caroline Hwang, Travis Millard, Sumi Ink Club, and prints from Mike Giant, Dalek, Saber, Jim Houser, and more.
With a growing number of artists joining the benefit daily, participating patrons will have a rare opportunity to bid amongst a remarkable selection of original pieces. All proceeds made will go directly to support Justin Van Hoy and family. The day of the auction will be part of a joint effort across the nation to honor and encourage Justin, who has been been battling Leukemia. Those unfamiliar with Justin might not be as distant from him as perceived. As the art director for SWINDLE magazine, and contributor of works for artists and brands such as OBEY, Roger Gastman, Cobra Snake and more, Justin’s distinct and captivating art work has been feeding our creative hunger for years.
