When I was a 14-year-old skateboarder, a friend played me “Never Mind the Bollocks, Here’s the Sex Pistols,” and that moment marked a turning point for me. The Sex Pistols provided the adrenaline-inducing soundtrack for my rebellion. If the Sex Pistols provided the soundtrack, the artist behind their imagery, Jamie Reid, provided the visuals for the revolution. Jamie Reid did the iconic art for the Sex Pistols like the “God Save the Queen” sleeve, the “Pretty Vacant” sleeve, and the cover for the album “Never Mind the Bollocks, Here’s the Sex Pistols.” Jamie deserves the majority of credit for the daring aesthetics of Punk Rock. If you’ve ever seen a photocopied, ransom note style, cut & paste punk graphic, then you’ve seen Jamie Reid’s influence. Jamie has been one of my biggest creative inspirations both visually and philosophically, because his work is bold, provocative, irreverent, and political. Jamie Reid also turned me on to Situationism, a movement dedicated to disrupting the conformist trance through pranks and spectacles. I’m honored that I have been able to work with Jamie on some collaborative images and to present a special collection through Obey Clothing in his honor, as well as two limited edition screen-prints. Jamie and I have mutual interest in shaking things up and addressing the problems of corruption, environmental destruction, and wealth inequality, so it is very energizing and meaningful to do a project with him. Enjoy and embrace the chaos!" -Shepard Fairey

Jamie Reid

Jamie Reid (born 1947) is a British artist and anarchist, best known for his iconic punk-era album artwork, specifically his work with the Sex Pistols, an influential punk rock band from the 1970s. Reid's designs are often characterized by a DIY (do-it-yourself) aesthetic, incorporating cut-and-paste collages, bold typography, and political messaging. Reid's most famous artwork is probably the cover for the Sex Pistols' album "Never Mind the Bollocks, Here's the Sex Pistols" (1977), which featured a chaotic jumble of cut-out letters in various colors. Another well-known piece is the artwork for the single "God Save the Queen" (1977), which featured a defaced image of Queen Elizabeth II with a safety pin through her mouth and swastikas in her eyes. This controversial image became a symbol of the punk movement and its anti-establishment stance. Reid's work was heavily influenced by the Situationist International, a group of avant-garde artists and intellectuals from the late 1950s to the early 1970s, who sought to critique and subvert consumer culture and capitalist society. Reid's provocative designs have had a lasting impact on the visual language of punk and counterculture movements. Jamie Reid is perhaps best known for his iconic album and single covers for the Sex Pistols, particularly the "Never Mind the Bollocks, Here's the Sex Pistols" album and "Anarchy in the UK" single. His work has been associated with the punk subculture and embodies its DIY, anti-establishment ethos.
