For his fifth year, frontman Robert Smith of The Cure has made available for auction a series of five postcard-sized pieces of artwork inspired by the band's 2024 album for the anonymous heART project – an online auction featuring over 500 pieces being sold to benefit Heart Research UK.

Though the identity of each artist is set to be revealed after items are sold, taking a look at the list of artwork available, fans can plainly tell which ones were created by Smith, each based on tracks from Songs of a Lost World, titled ‘Drone:Nodrone,’ ‘I Can Never Say Goodbye,’ 'Warsong,' and ‘A Fragile Thing.’ Smith’s final piece, 'All I Ever Am,' is a collage of official album art from the band’s past releases including Disintegration, Pornography, The Head On The Door, Three Imaginary Boys, Wish, Standing on a Beach, and more.

Items will be available for bidding until 9PM GMT/4PM EST/1PM PST on November 10. Take a look at all of the incredible artwork up for auction right HERE.

After a few wild mood swings, The Cure has given fans a near-perfect eight-track offering with their first album in 16 years -- 2024's Songs of a Lost World -- admittedly the band's "doomiest" in decades, throwing back to fan fave records like their '90s opuses Disintegration and Wish.
