13 Highlights from ‘Artists for Kamala’ Benefit Sale, Including Works by Jeff Koons, George Condo, and More

October 4, 2024

Carrie Mae Weems, George Condo, Jenny Holzer, and Hank Willis Thomas are just a few of the artists that have donated work to Artists for Kamala, a benefit in support of Vice President Kamala Harris’s presidential campaign.

Works range in price from $250 for prints to as much $300,000 for household names like Jeff Koons and Amy Sherald. There were 164 works donated in total, around 50 of the which will be auctioned online through Artsy, starting on September 30 and closing on October 8. The remaining works come with fixed prices and are available on the Artists for Kamala website.

According to Artsy, the online auction alone is expected to raise over $1 million. Proceeds will go toward the Harris Victory Fund, a joint fundraising committee that raises money for Harris for President, the Democratic National Committee, and state Democratic parties.
