THE K FOUNDATION

The K Foundation motto was Divide and Create.
The aims of The K Foundation were undefined but were once stated to be The Advancement of Creation.
Cauty and Drummond first began imagining The K Foundation on February
18th 1993.

On August 23rd 1994, Cauty and Drummond set fire to (Pound) 1,000,000 of their own money and burned the lot. This happened in a derelict boat house on the Island of Jura, Scotland.
The one million had been amassed from Cauty and Drummond's career in pop music. The buming was filmed.
'Watch The K Foundation Burn A Million Quid' is a 63 minute film of unedited footage. It starts with the match being struck and ends with the final ember dying. In between nothing happens but Cauty and Drummond feeding the flames with bundles of 50 Poundnotes. The film is silent.

On the 5th November 1995, Cauty and Drummond signed a contract agreeing to end The K Foundation for a period of 23 years. This postponement 'provides opportunity of sufficient length for an accurate and appropriately executed response to their burning of a million quid'.

Other work compieted by The K Foundation includes:

1. The Red Army Choir performing K Cera Cera (War is over if you want it)
This was recorded as The Foundation's Anthem.

2. The 1994 K Foundation Award: The public was made aware of, and participated in
the awards via full-page adverts in the national broadsheets, TV advertising and editorial
comment.

3. Money: A Major Body of Cash. An exhibition literally described by its title. The
central piece being 'Nailed to the Wall'.

A brick has been made of the ashes of the 1,000,000. P. Cauty and Drummond now perceive this to be the physical embodiment of The K Foundation.
