Robert Malherbe joins a group of other high profile artists who will be donating an artwork each to auction as part of ABC Mental As... a week long initiative to run during Mental Health Week, 5 - 12 October. The online auction is intended to help raise funds to boost mental health research in Australia.

"The artworks being auctioned for ABC Mental As... are not just vibrant pieces from some of our most cherished artists but also reflect the reason why we are supporting this initiative." ABC Managing director Mark Scott

The artworks all consider mental illness as a theme and are each available for sale in the online auction, concluding on Sunday the 12th of October. The artworks will be on display to the public in the ABC's Ultimo foyer from Monday September 29 to October 10. Bidding will go live on Thursday the 2nd of October.
