Bid for Cristina Schek’s Mid-Air: From Young Masters’ Her Court at Wimbledon Museum to Centenary Action’s Charity Auction

What do The X-Files, a Clint Eastwood film starring Tom Hanks and the suffragettes have in common? Quite a lot, as it turns out!

Following the Young Masters exhibition Her Court at Wimbledon Museum, Dr Helen Pankhurst CBE selected Cristina Schek’s Mid-Air (2026) for special Centenary Action cards sent to every woman MP in the House of Commons.

Now, a specially released Artist’s Proof of Mid-Air is being auctioned in support of Centenary Action’s campaign for a gender-equal UK Parliament by 2028, with support from SYLVIA the musical.

Artwork value: £1,500 | Starting bid: £500

Auction closes Sunday 15 November 2026, 9:45pm GMT.
