New York Knicks star Tyson Chandler unveiled and auctioned off his exclusive photography in Chelsea this past September. The showcase, A Year in a New York Minute, featured 16 photos Chandler shot that encapsulated his year; including his trip to Africa. Proceeds from the auctions were donated to UNICEF.
