BT Artbox - Communication Breakdown

The BT Artbox Story

The good old British phone box was designed by Sir Giles Gilbert Scott to commemorate King

George V's Silver Jubilee.

This year we’ve got a Diamond Jubilee and London 2012 to look forward to, so we decided we needed to do something to celebrate.

That something turned into BT ArtBox. It’s a campaign that thrives on the nation’s artistic talent.

Across London’s streets you’ll find replicas of the Gilbert Scott phone box, transformed by the

imaginations of some of our very best creative minds.

Then later on we’ll be auctioning all the boxes off to raise money for ChildLine’s 25th anniversary.

 

“Communication Breakdown”

Artist: Andrew Hewkin

Location: Bermondsey Street

 

Highlighting the importance of communication for ChildLine's vital services.

Painted in Hewkin's signature painterly style, the ArtBox evokes memories of tropical havens and plush palm trees. Painted with vibrant uplifting colours in celebration of the incredible work that ChildLine does.
