Charity Fight for Sight has gathered together over 70 pieces of work from contemporary British artists such as Damian Hirst, Patrick Hughes (see above) and Julian Opie for a live and online auction to raise money for research into sight loss.

The works of art will be on display at the Menier Gallery in Southwark from May 21-26 and online at www.eyeforart.org.uk now. Online bids can be made from 12pm on May 13 until 9pm on May 22.

Julian Jackson, director of development and marketing at Fight for Sight said: 'Artists from across the UK have made incredibly generous donations of their art. Many of them will be joining us at the auction on May 22. If you appreciate art, you really must appreciate your sight. Help us to make sight loss a thing of the past.'
