‘Me, My Brain, and I’ is an international art exhibition and auction that seeks to explain and engage Parkinson’s to and with a global audience through brain-themed artworks by 20 renowned artists and celebrities.

In addition to building on the charity’s new alliance with The US-based Parkinson’s Foundation, helping raise awareness, and reaching new international audiences and engagement opportunities, the primary goal of “Me, My Brain and I” is to raise funds for Parkinson’s UK in a bold, ambitious, engaging way: the sale of each unique artwork via online auction site Paddle8. The aim is to raise at least x3 costs (estimated c. £30k).

Art Below will feature the project across £20k worth of billboard advertising space on the London Underground as well as on billboards/public transport hubs in other TOAF locations.

Art in The Age of Now, is a celebration of creativity and community featuring some of London’s finest artists in the incredible setting that is Fulham Town Hall. Curated by Ben Moore and in partnership with hotel operators Lamington Group and property developers Ziser London, this free public exhibition presents new and diverse work by leading and emerging artists, much of which was created during lockdown and is being shown for the first time.

The exhibition brings the Town Hall - a Grade II listed building steeped in history and closed for nearly a decade - back to life and into the hands of the local community before work begins on its new incarnation as a luxury, boutique hotel and entertainment hub.

This was a one-off exhibition and an opportunity to celebrate the building and its historic grandeur before its new lease of life, and to immerse yourself in the artists’ truly exceptional creations.

Art in the Age of Now featured a number of works by over 150 local and national artists that were created during lockdown, as well as talks, live music and performances, welcoming over 25,000 visitors from across the country.

“This is a rare opportunity to give Londoners and the wider public a last chance to visit and discover the seen and unseen parts of the historic Fulham Town Hall, combined with a wildly different free art show featuring immersive works installed into and onto the building itself. This project was conceived to connect with the local community, support the capital’s vibrant artistic community, and set an intent for the Town Hall for years to come.” - Robert Godwin, MD, Lamington Group

In 2019 to mark the 50th Anniversary of the Moon Landings Ben Moore curated ‘One Small Step’. A unique exhibition featuring 12 leading artists - in-line with the 12 men who have walked on the moon since 1969 - who each transformed an astronaut helmet into a work of art.

Participating artists included  Joana Vasconcelos, Mr. Brainwash, Bran Symondson, UnSKilled Worker, Hayden Kays, Ben Eine,  and Chris Levine.

The exhibition toured as the headline feature of The Other Art Fair in London (July 2019) Los Angeles and Dallas (September 2019)  and raised over £100,000 for MAG (Mines Advisory Group) whose mission is to clear landmines and unexploded bombs from conflict-affected communities, where one small step can be the difference between life and death.

UnMissable is an exhibition of portraits of missing people. The series of 25 portraits was unveiled at The Other Art Fair at London’s Truman Brewery hosted by Saatchi Art in March 2019. Ben Moore was commissioned by the Missing People Charity to curate ‘UnMissable’ to mark their 25th Anniversary.

UnMissable was supported by Art Below with billboard posters of portraits of the missing people on the London Underground.

Participating artists include  Samira Addo, Charming Baker, Ricardo Cinalili,  Nina Fowler, Carne Griffiths, Rebecca Fontaine-Wolf, Will Teather, Amy Shuckburgh,  Mark Metcalfe, Paul Benney, Ru Knox and Tim Gatenby.

Moore has been working closely with the Missing People Charity since his brother Tom went missing in 2003.  All proceeds from sales of paintings and prints go to Missing People.

Ben Moore was curator-in-residence for the arts program at Re: Centre, Thames Wharf, situated next to the River Cafe and Damien Hirst's studio. From July 2018 to February 2019 he curated two exhibitions that took place at Re:Centre’s 4000 square feet gallery  space. 

The first exhibition titled ‘Choose Your Hero’ was based on the theme of  The Hero’s Journey by Joseph Campbell.  Exhibition dates: 4th - 17th October 2018.

The second Exhibition was titled ‘Plei.  Nine artists explored the impact of play on our wellbeing, especially in adult life. They expressed this playfulness through their various mediums – tapping into the natural instinct to experiment. Exhibition dates: 24 January - 5th February 2019.

Selected works from both of the exhibitions went on display across billboard space in the London Underground supported by Art Below.

Stations of the Cross is an ongoing series of exhibitions depicting the crucifixion of Christ, curated by Ben Moore in support of the Missing Tom Fund.

‘Stations of the Cross’ 2014 and 2015 were held at St.Marylebone Church and at St.Stephen’s Walbrook Church in 2018.

The 40 day long exhibitions during the Easter period included works by Francis Bacon, Sebastian Horsley, Mat Collishaw, Wolfe Lenkiewicz, Polly Morgan, Paul Fryer and Antony Micallef.

Art Below showcased many of the works on billboard space at London Underground stations that had a resounding link to the theme including Kings Cross, Temple, Angel, Charing Cross and St.Paul’s.
