Immediately after the terrorist attacks in the Moscow subway on March 29 forum ARTinvestment.RU voiced the idea to hold a charity auction to help victims of the attacks. That proposal received a massive response to the forum, and as visitors to the site and forum are people closely associated with the art business, the decision to collect pictures as lots for the auction was quite logical and, most importantly, quickly implementable. In order not to delay the process and involve the maximum number of participants, the auction was held in the online mode on the forum AI.

solving organizational issues and alert the media about the upcoming auction of a lot of time not taken, then in our office began to call, write, and come the authors, collectors, gallery owners, the heirs have already gone artists.

paintings at a charity auction brought in and sent from Moscow, St. Petersburg, Nizhny Novgorod, Maikop, Sochi, mail, and friends of friends drove them from the Ukraine, Israel, France and even of Georgia. Since Georgia was a different story: because at the time the message it was not any, activists forum organized delivery of pictures over Sochi. Pictures were floating on the sea, ride a donkey along mountain trails, and at the end of their path was carrying DHL.

As a result, during the online auction sold 33 paintings worth about 250 000 rubles. Then, when seemingly all over, it is actually just begun. They began to call and people come and buy the unsold lots. The process took a very intense, some pictures turned out for two or three people willing to buy.
