βThe Art Gameβ x Filthy Fox Auction π’
πWEDNESDAY, 03.09.2025π
On 3rd September, we hosted our βThe Art Gameβ Special Edition Auction togehter with the BBC!
A huge thank you, straight from our filthy hearts, to YOU. π
Being part of the BBCβs The Art Game was an absolute thrill - a wild, historic moment for us! πΈ Now weβre buzzing with excitement (and just a touch of terror π΅βπ«) as we impatiently wait for the mysterious beast of a show about the UKβs art market to air next year on BBC2. πΊ Fingers crossed youβll make the cut tooβ¦ and that our nervous little tongue-twisters donβt! π
It meant the world that you braved the great British summer rain βοΈ, powered through wonky wifi and 10 big-ass cameras π¬, just to cheer, bid, laugh with us - and witness a slice of TV history in the making (and maybe the start of some big careers too). ππ
Itβs wild to think that a little spark of an idea we had four years ago, in the middle of the pandemic, has now grown into this - national TV, packed rooms full of fascinating people, real impact for artists, and our hard work finally being seen. None of it wouldβve happened without you - our loyal, filthy fox family. π
Donβt be a stranger: our next Winter Auction is coming soon, live in London, with a lineup of Filthy Fox-selected artists and works you wonβt want to miss. π¨ππ
P.S. For all you unlucky foxes who didnβt manage to snag an artwork - you can still get your paws on our iconic merch collection π ! Our filthy-cool scarves 𧣠and caps π§’ wonβt just earn you endless compliments, they also help keep our auctions alive, kicking, and just a little bit naughty. π
Stay filthy,
Always xx π

Live Auction:
πSATURDAY, 30.11.2024π
@ The Old Church, Stoke Newington
Church Street London N16 9ES
5 - 11 pm (GMT)
One for the books.πWhat an epic night, that we will be memory-feasting off for the rest of our livesπ₯π₯
π₯FFAC Vol.3 has been a huge success thanks to our incredibly supportive community that has been making this possible. Having almost sold out all artworks on the highest average price to date in a time of financial crisis, means a lot for us and the artists involved.
We cannot express our gratitude and happiness about this one enough. This year has definitely been a filthy step up with our wonderful preview @sarahkravitzgallery AND the most special auction in the holy walls of @theoldchurchn16 !!
Big thanks to the amazing help from London Art Services, who organised a secondary use (may we say: much more important use) for the freshly deinstalled Saatchi walls - as well as @originalsmallbeer who kept everyone on a perfectly smooth boozy level with their free and delicious low-alc locally brewed beers.
Thanks to all the plenty people (new and old filthy friends) who joined, and especially those feisty bidders who made us all sweat βοΈπ₯΅π¦!!! π₯
Thanks also to all the plenty online bidders who have braved the live-streaming and even managed to secure their bids despite a moody internet connection in the second half (always an uncontrollable challenge for us - which hopefully will be solved with technology one day soon π½)
We are beyond happy as well as exhausted, and need a proper good christmas break now π Hopefully there will be some beautiful filthy fox artworks under the treeβ¦! π¦ππ¦

Panel Talk @ Painters Hall
24.04.2024
Big THANK YOU to the masterminds behind it all, @painterstainers & @inpractice_art! π π And of course huge shoutout to the stellar panelists @matt_careywilliams, @jillwarvis βοΈβοΈ
It was an absolute honor to share the stage with you at the latest panel talk on βMAKING SALES π°- the Shifting Landscapeβ. We had a blast and are buzzing from the energy! π₯³
π₯ Highlights:
βDo we actually need galleries anymore?β π¨
As we dove into the debate, it became clear that while galleries pack a punch with structure, support, and exposure, many artists are now navigating these waters via alternative routes. Yep, the times they are changing! Galleries are fab for building relationships and getting your art out there, but hey, letβs not forget to spice things up beyond the studio walls to keep our art game strong and our relevance intact, innit? π
Further tips for art grads/artists π©βπ¨
- Split your grind: 50% networking, 50% creating ποΈ
- Start making your exhibitions happen ASAP, donβt wait for the ink on your diploma to dry!
- Make sure you snap professional pictures of your work - think of your online presence as a digital representation and be intentional about it πΈβ¨
- Disclaimer: Donβt work with a**holes!
- Trade art with other artists. Hint, hint - Picasso/Braque π πΌοΈ
- Focus on understanding the art landscape and your goals, not competing π
- Networking is more than a handshake; itβs about weaving your own community tapestry. π€π
Thanks again for a fantastic time, and hereβs to making waves (or tapestries?) together! ππ

Fine Art students of BA and MA and teachers, were asked to donate small works or souvenirs of their time during the Pandemic.
We were able to raise and donate Β£ 1,500 to the student hardship fund, to support struggling art students with e.g. funding for materials. It was sold out completely and hella fun!π₯
