Jamie Reid signed
"Standing Stones"
Extremely rare Suburban Press-era signed,
numbered and titled Jamie Reid "Standing Stones" print. Most of this
edition was either lost or stolen many years ago, making this one of
the very few known to exist; it is effectively one of a 'lost edition'.
A version of this print did appear in the original and re-published
"Suburban Press Poster Book" , but none were signed, titled nor
numbered. This one is titled lower left, numbered (27/50) and
signed lower right all in pencil by Jamie Reid. A
rare opportunity to acquire a pre-Sex Pistols piece by a highly
collected and respected artist.
Light handling creases (no problem for a good
framer), otherwise excellent condition.

CECILY BROWN : ‘Paranoia Man in
Cheap Shit Room’
Born London 1969. Expanding the tradition of
expressionism, Cecily draws her influences from painters such as
Francis Bacon and Willem de Kooning to put a feminine twist on a male
dominated art history. Her paintings are marked by a carnal
physicality, in which bodies are fragmented, distorted, and fetishised.
A sound investment!

JODY : ‘Cock Magnet’
Born in the UK, and educated in London at the
Royal College of Art, Jody has a way with the marker pen that is
unique. He puts together classical drawing skills with wit and a crazy
wisdom. His ideas and images are like tattoos for the mind. Once you've
seen them - you don't forget them. A constant innovator in materials
and typographic presentation, Jody is always working on new ideas and
approaches to communicating visually. Lately he has been working on a
series about the symbology of Britain and a new approach to type
construction using meticulous, flowing watercolour.

GRAHAM COXON : ‘Girl With The
Brown Hair’
Pop star, artist, some say genius, some say best
guitarist of his generation. You might be surprised to learn that you
probably own a piece of his fine art already. Even Warhol, the master
of the accessible public statement, didn't reach as many homes with his
iconic Velvet's banana as Graham did with his artwork on Blur's ‘13’
album and its related singles, such as ‘Tender’, and on his five solo
albums and singles.

JAMIE REID : ‘God
Save Us All’
Originally featured as props, in
the graveyard
scene of ‘The Great Rock'n'Roll Swindle’, these are amongst the rarest
pieces produced by the artist.
They also have close links with the
Situationist
International, whose English off-shoot, King Mob, formed after their
expulsion in 1967.
The aim of S.I. political
philosophy was to
re-empower the working classes, by breaking down the boundaries between
art and life.
King Mob ditched much of the
overtly political
causes of the S.I., concentrating more on the celebration and promotion
of all forms of anti-social behaviour, and taboo-breaking.
In 1968, King Mob Echo praised
Jack-the-Ripper,
and others, in line with this philosophy.
Controversial in their subject
matter of “three
good baddies”, and three “bad baddies”, who can deny that ‘God Save The
Cambidge Rapist’, and ‘God Save Myra Hindley’, are very much in the
spirit of King Mob's praise of child-killer, Mary Bell?
In the words of the artist “They
all needed
saving…”
Each set is printed on Arches 88
300gsm, 100%
cotton fibre paper with deckled edges, and are individually signed,
numbered, and inscribed ‘God Save Us All’ by the artist.
