Original Mylo Xyloto album artwork by Coldplay band members and Paris raised £500, 000 for Kids Company charity at Proud Camden galleries at the beginning of December.  Fraser Kee Scott of Album Artists commented on Facebook:   “I just sold the Coldplay Mylo Xyloto wall for £500,000, which all goes to Kids Company!  That means total sales are now over a million dollars which all goes to the charity!  This has been a mind blowing week for my new company Album Artists.”

The exhibition featured three original paintings on canvas by Coldplay and the band’s Mylo Xyloto artwork collaborator Paris, as well as the original 7m x 2.5m graffiti wall that became the album artwork.  A second wall painted by children from Kids Company and Paris was displayed above the stage opposite Coldplay’s graffiti wall.  A collection of never seen before Coldplay tour photo prints by their photographer Matthew Miller was one of the highlights of the show.
