Chris Brown and world-renowned pop artist Romero Brittos recently collaborated on an original art piece they titled ‘Music,’ and in an effort to give back they are auctioning off the piece to the highest bidder, with all the proceeds going to charity. The two teamed up back in March at Brittos studio in Miami to create the unique graffiti style work in celebration of love, music, and friendship. The painting is 60 inches in height by 80 inches wide and is acrylic and spray paint on canvas.
The collaboration is an initiative of Browns Symphonic Love Foundation to raise funds and awareness for Best Buddies International. Both Brown and Britto are long-standing supporters of the cause, whose mission is to establish a global volunteer movement that creates opportunities for friendship, employment and leadership training for people with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD) and advocates for people with IDD.
“It’s an honor to work with Britto to support Best Buddies,” said Brown, who has long admired Brittos iconic work. “Collaborating with other artists helps me grow as an artist. Using my creativity to give back helps me grow as a person.”
“I’m always very honored and committed to support Best Buddies in any way that I can!” expresses Britto. ”I’m so excited to collaborate with the incredibly talented Chris Brown for this amazing cause. Together, we have the opportunity to reach, educate, and mobilize millions in support of those with IDD.”
For the past four years, Brown has visited with Best Buddies participants throughout the U.S. and Australia, donated proceeds from his U.S. tour, provided financial support from his Symphonic Love Foundation, and provided VIP tickets for Best Buddies participants to his concerts in the U.S. and abroad.
Bidding on this one-of-a-kind piece is now open at www.Charitybuzz.com/ChrisBrown through October 10. Brown will continue to raise funds for the causes he supports by collaborating with other artists and auctioning off other unique pieces of art throughout the end of the year.
