K Foundation

An alias of the KLF, the K Foundation was set up to be less about music and instead for surreal, inexplicable art – such as adverts taken out in major publications, themed around the letter K, or most infamously burning £1,000,000 in cash after they were unable to nail the notes to a wall for an art piece.

K Cera Cera, the only song officially released under the K Foundation name, was originally intended as another cryptic advert – ‘This recording will only ever be made commercially available once world peace has been firmly established…. Available nowhere, no formats’. When it was decided to release the single in celebration of Israel and Palestine agreeing in peace talks, the K Foundation name was used with no direct mention of the KLF, to avoid making a comeback ‘on the back of a humanist gimmick’.

The K Foundation name was retired in 1995, and a 23 year silence about the project (including ‘The K Foundation Burn A Million Quid’) followed.

The K Foundation was an art foundation set up by Jimmy Cauty and Bill Drummond, formerly of The KLF, in 1993, following their 'retirement' from the music industry. The Foundation served as an artistic outlet for the duo's post-retirement KLF income.
