    Jamie Reid Never Trust A Punk Giclee Print by Jamie Reid

    Never Trust A Punk Artwork Giclee Limited Edition Print on 290gsm Hahnemühle Bamboo Paper by Pop Culture Graffiti Artist Jamie Reid. 2019 Signed & Numbered Limited Edition of 300 Artwork Size 32.3x22.8 In the annals of pop culture, graffiti, and street art, Jamie Reid emerges as a luminary, challenging societal norms with his provocative creations. "Never Trust A Punk" stands as a testament to Reid's unparalleled ability to intertwine art with cultural and political discourse. This piece, crafted in 2019, distinctly captures the punk ethos that rose to prominence in the late 1970s, becoming a hallmark of Reid's aesthetic. "Never Trust A Punk" is not merely an artwork but a statement, a proclamation that showcases Reid's characteristic blend of satire, dissent, and visual appeal. The juxtaposition of the iconic Union Jack with a stark portrayal of the British monarch, her eyes concealed, boldly encapsulates the rebellious spirit of the time. The message is clear, echoing sentiments of distrust and rebellion, which were rampant during the punk movement. This artwork holds an even deeper resonance for music enthusiasts and followers of British punk rock. The imagery bears a striking resemblance to that used for the cover of "God Save the Queen" by The Sex Pistols in 1977, a track that stirred controversy and remains emblematic of the punk era. As a limited edition giclee print, only 300 pieces of "Never Trust A Punk" were ever produced. Each print is immaculately rendered on premium 290gsm Hahnemühle bamboo paper, a medium chosen for its ability to capture the vibrancy and detail of the original artwork. Measuring at 32.3 x 22.8 inches, each piece is hand-signed and numbered by Reid, solidifying its authenticity and making it a coveted item for collectors and art enthusiasts alike.

    Jamie Reid Queen In Blood Diamonds Negative Silkscreen Print by Jamie Reid

    Queen In Blood Diamonds Negative Silkscreen Print by Jamie Reid Hand-Pulled on Wove Fine Art Paper Limited Edition Artwork. 2020 Signed & Numbered Limited Edition of 250 Artwork Size 17x24.5 Silkscreen Print of Elizabeth II Queen of England In Demonic Style With Words "God Save Great Britain" Art Car Boot Fair Edition "Queen In Blood Diamonds Negative" is a striking silkscreen print by the renowned artist Jamie Reid, a limited edition piece produced with meticulous hand-pulled technique on fine wove art paper. Dated 2020, this exclusive artwork, available in only 250 signed and numbered editions, measures 17x24.5 inches, marking its significance in the realm of contemporary art. Delving into the details, the artwork portrays Elizabeth II, the Queen of England, in a provocative and almost demonic style. This avant-garde representation draws heavily from Reid's previous creations, especially his emblematic work for the Sex Pistols - "God Save The Queen." Notably, in "Queen In Blood Diamonds Negative," the Queen is adorned with the same blood diamond crown that she was pictured wearing for her 1977 Jubilee. This crown, beyond its historical significance, provides a visual linkage between Reid's iconic past work and this contemporary piece. The origins of this piece are rooted in Reid's collaboration for the Scorzayzee record titled 'Great Britain'. The artwork's integration of the phrase "God Save Great Britain" further reinforces its socio-political commentary, a hallmark of Reid's style. The work's debut at the Art Car Boot Fair speaks volumes about its place in modern pop and street art. Its edgy appearance, combined with Reid's historic association with punk aesthetics, ensures that "Queen In Blood Diamonds Negative" stands out as an emblematic representation of the ongoing dialogue between monarchy, pop culture, and societal critique in the realms of street and graffiti art.

  • Ian Curtis Heart and Soul Silkscreen Print by Shepard Fairey- OBEY

    Shepard Fairey- OBEY Ian Curtis Heart and Soul Silkscreen Print by Shepard Fairey- OBEY

    Ian Curtis Heart and Soul Silkscreen Print by Shepard Fairey- OBEY Hand-Pulled 3-Color on Cream Speckletone Fine Art Paper Limited Edition Artwork Obey Pop Culture Artist. 2023 Signed & Numbered Limited Edition of 500 Artwork Size 18x24 Silkscreen Print "I first discovered Joy Division through my friend Jay Haley in 1985-86. Jay was a little more open-minded than I was, so he was listening to aggressive punk and hardcore, but also, more moody music like The Smiths, The Cure, early Cult, and Joy Division. I initially liked some of Joy Division’s melodies, but I generally found the music a bit cold, sparse, and haunting on the verge of depressing. However, the music grew on me over time and the qualities I just described as liabilities became assets. As I grew out of my punk rock orthodoxy phase I realized no band sounded quite like Joy Division. My love of Joy Division has only grown over the years along with my appreciation for their imagery. Joy Division’s image of elegant austerity is often connected to their artwork by Peter Saville, but a lot of credit should go to Kevin Cumminsfor his noir portraits of the band. I’ve loved Cummin’s photography for years, so I was delighted when he agreed to collaborate on a portrait of Ian Curtis, Joy Division’s singer who took his own life in 1980 at 23. Curtis was a unique singer but also a powerful lyricist, so the lyrics to the song Heart and Soul are woven through the art along with an angular divide through Curtis’s figure symbolizing the tension between heart and soul. Since Kevin actually knew Ian, I appreciated that he would allow me to interpret his iconic photo!" -Shepard Fairey- OBEY Shepard Fairey's "Ian Curtis Heart and Soul" silkscreen print is a powerful tribute to the enigmatic Joy Division frontman and his profound impact on music and visual culture. Released in 2023, this limited edition print encapsulates Fairey's deep personal connection to Curtis and the band's enduring legacy. The artwork, sized at 18x24 inches and limited to a series of 500, is meticulously hand-pulled, showcasing three colors on cream speckletone fine art paper, underscoring the raw and textured essence of the subject matter. Fairey's engagement with Joy Division's work began in the mid-1980s, a time marked by a musical awakening as he transitioned from a strict punk perspective to a broader appreciation of the haunting, sad sounds that defined Joy Division's discography. Fairey candidly discusses how the initial perception of the music as 'cold and haunting' eventually morphed into an understanding of its depth and uniqueness, revealing a narrative of personal and artistic growth. Integral to this print is Fairey's collaboration with Kevin Cummins, a photographer renowned for his poignant portraits of Joy Division, which have significantly shaped the band's visual narrative. The decision to weave the lyrics of "Heart and Soul" into the fabric of the portrait is both a literal and figurative intertwining of Curtis's lyrical genius with his visual representation. This design choice also hints at the complexities of Curtis's personal struggles, echoed in the stark contrast that bisects his figure in the artwork—a poignant reminder of the internal discord between passion and reason, emotion and intellect. Fairey's print is not merely a visual piece but a narrative collage that pays homage to the artistic influence and legacy of Ian Curtis. By embedding the soul-stirring lyrics of "Heart and Soul" within the artwork, Fairey invites viewers to engage with the piece on multiple levels: aesthetically, emotionally, and intellectually. The print transcends mere representation, becoming a conduit for the artist's reverence for Curtis's talents as a singer and lyricist and the enduring impact of Joy Division on music and popular culture, ensuring that the heart and soul of Ian Curtis's artistry continue to resonate through time.

  • God Save Margaret Thatchers Children by Billy Childish x Jamie Reid God Save Margaret Thatchers Children by Billy Childish x Jamie Reid

    God Save Margaret Thatchers Children by Billy Childish x Jamie Reid

    God Save Margaret Thatcher Giclee Print Record CD Box Set by Billy Childish x Jamie Reid Artwork Limited Edition Print With Safety-pin On Distressed Fine Art Paper Graffiti Pop Street Artist. 2013 Signed & Numbered Limited Edition of 200 Artwork Size 27.6x20.5 2013 Thatcher's Children Boxed Record CD & Letter Box Set Plus L-13 Brown Bag The collaborative artwork "God Save Margaret Thatcher" by Billy Childish and Jamie Reid is a sharp and provocative commentary rendered through the lens of street pop art and graffiti artwork. The limited edition giclee print, part of a collection that includes a boxed record CD and letter box set, is a fusion of political narrative and artistic expression that captures the cultural zeitgeist of its time. Political Satire and Artistic Expression The giclee print is a bold statement within the pop art movement, a genre known for blurring the lines between high art and popular culture. Billy Childish and Jamie Reid, known for their aggressive aesthetics, use the iconography associated with Margaret Thatcher, the former Prime Minister of the UK, to create a layered discourse on power, policy, and patriotism. The artwork, sized 27.6x20.5 inches, employs the distressed look typical of street art and the precision of fine art printing techniques, with the addition of a safety pin that punctuates the piece with an emblem of punk culture. The image of Thatcher, presented with a stylized rendition of the Union Jack and the phrase "God Save," evokes the nationalistic fervor and divisive politics of her era. The choice of giclee printing ensures that each piece in the limited edition of 200 retains the vibrancy and detail of the original work, making it not just a political statement but also a collector's item. Reid and Childish's Distinctive Styles Jamie Reid, famously associated with the punk rock band the Sex Pistols, brings his characteristic ransom-note typography to the collaboration, complementing Childish's raw and expressive style. The layered text over Thatcher's image creates a visual cacophony that mirrors the social and political turbulence associated with her tenure as Prime Minister. The aesthetics of the print are reminiscent of Reid's work on album covers, while Childish's influence is evident in the vibrant and unrefined quality of the imagery. This limited edition print, signed and numbered by the artists, is a testament to their shared ethos of challenging authority and convention through art. The use of distressed fine art paper adds a layer of authenticity, emulating the ephemeral nature of street art and graffiti while simultaneously offering the permanence of fine art. Boxed Record CD and Letter Box Set Accompanying the giclee print is the "Thatcher's Children" boxed record CD and letter box set, an extension of the narrative explored in the print. This set, a combination of visual art and music, encapsulates the multifaceted approach to storytelling that both Childish and Reid employ. Including music and the written word with the optical components enriches the dialogue initiated by the print, offering a more immersive experience of the artwork's thematic content. Cultural Packaging: The L-13 Brown Bag The entire collection is presented in an L-13 brown bag, a packaging choice that is both practical and symbolic. The unassuming brown bag, often associated with the bland transportation of goods, is a vessel for transporting powerful artistic and political statements. The L-13 stamp on the bag indicates the involvement of the L-13 Light Industrial Workshop, known for supporting avant-garde and counter-culture artists, further aligning the collection with the spirit of rebellion and dissent. Significance in Modern Art The "God Save Margaret Thatcher" giclee print and accompanying items hold a significant place in the narrative of modern art. They represent a confluence of street art's accessibility, pop art's use of popular imagery, and the personal touch of graffiti art. The collection is not only a reflection of the political climate of the 1980s but also a timeless exploration of the power dynamics and societal structures that continue to shape contemporary discourse. Billy Childish and Jamie Reid's collaborative effort in creating the "God Save Margaret Thatcher" collection is a masterful blend of street pop art and graffiti artwork that resonates with cultural and political relevance. The print's limited edition nature, the giclee medium's quality, and the boxed set's comprehensive nature all contribute to the collection's appeal as a significant piece of art history and a poignant commentary on the social and political landscape.

United Kingdom: A Crucible of Street Pop Art and Graffiti Innovation

The United Kingdom has carved out its identity as a seminal landscape for street pop art and graffiti, with England being a central stage for the burgeoning and evolving street art scene. From the alleys of London to the lanes of Bristol, street and pop art have become integral threads in the fabric of British urban culture.

Street Art's Ascendance in the UK

The ascendance of street art in the UK is a narrative of transformation and growth. Initially emerging as a subversive act on the fringes of legality, it has since been embraced by the public and the art world. The UK's street art provides a vibrant commentary on society, politics, and culture, with murals, stencils, and installations that have turned public spaces into forums for expression and dialogue.

Artistic Evolution and Public Engagement

An active engagement with the public marks artistic evolution in the UK's street art scene. Artists like Banksy have gained international fame, with works as likely to be discussed in academic circles as they are on the streets. The temporary nature of graffiti has lent a sense of immediacy to the medium. At the same time, pop art's incorporation into street art has brought a sense of playfulness and accessibility to the messages portrayed.

Iconic Festivals and Institutional Support

Institutional support and iconic festivals have played a significant role in the evolution of street pop art and graffiti in the UK. Events like Upfest in Bristol celebrate the art form and support its artists, showcasing the UK as a hub of street art culture. Public art projects and legal graffiti walls have also contributed to the legitimization and celebration of street art within the urban landscape.

Cultural Reflections in UK Street Art

Cultural reflections in UK street art are as diverse as the country itself. Works often explore themes of British identity, social class, and the nation's historical and contemporary issues. Street art in the UK serves as a visual narrative, reflecting the thoughts and feelings of its people and offering a unique insight into British life.

Street Art's Future in British Culture

The future of street art in British culture is one of continued innovation and integration. As more artists emerge and the public's appreciation grows, street art is likely to continue influencing and reflecting the culture and values of the UK. It stands as a testament to the power of public expression and the importance of art in the daily lives of people. The United Kingdom's contribution to street pop art and graffiti is memorable, with England being a pioneer in propelling this art form onto the global stage. The UK's street art scene is a dynamic force shaped by its artists and communities, and it remains a critical part of the country's cultural expression and identity.
