The fourth edition of the TOP CHARITY Auction broke its own record – the organizers raised over €14 million (60 million PLN) for philanthropic causes. The gala, with Dictador as its main partner, attracted international leaders, and the special guest of the event was Will Smith, the brand’s new Artistic Director. The auction featured 15 works of art and 10 unique experiences from the “Great Emotions” category.

 
The total amount raised from the auction of artworks alone reached €2,145,000 (approximately 9,200,000 PLN). The highest-bid piece was a sculpture by Uruguayan artist Pablo Atchugarry, sold for €720,000 (around 3,240,000 PLN). Meanwhile, works by Tadeusz Kantor (Parapluie-emballage from the Multipart series) and Jeff Koons – Balloon Monkey (Orange), Balloon Rabbit (Violet), and Balloon Swan (Magenta) – were each sold for €240,000 (approx. 1,080,000 PLN) each.

Also featured in the auction were works by: Bożenna Biskupska, Monika Falkus, Larry Amponsah, Yves Scherer, Igor Dobrowolski, Tadeusz Łodziana, Ablade Glover, Yaw Owusu, Saad Qureshi, Matthew Attard, Rita Mawuena Benissan, and Maciej Kasperski.

In the “Great Emotions” category, the record was set by a week-long trip to the luxurious Six Senses hotel in the Seychelles with Ewa Chodakowska, auctioned for over €1,600,000 (over 7,000,000 PLN). Another popular experience was a week-long stay at Regnum Carya with private golf and tennis lessons and a personal meeting with Omenaa Mensah and Rafał Brzoska, which sold for over €1,100,000 (almost 5,000,000 PLN). Other exclusive experiences included: a unique Dolce&Gabbana jewelry set, one of only 20 collector’s edition Mercedes cars in the world, a course at Sotheby’s Institute of Art, as well as time with Richard Branson and a one-of-a-kind experience with Shaquille O’Neal.

Funds raised during the auction will be allocated to the charitable initiatives of the Omenaa Foundation, Rafał Brzoska Foundation, OmenaArt Foundation, and the Philanthropic Consortium.

Launched in 2022, shortly after the outbreak of the war in Ukraine, the TOP CHARITY Auction continues to grow each year, attracting a broader circle of donors and partners. Thanks to the synergy of business, art, and philanthropy, the initiative is setting new standards in supporting social change – both locally and globally.
