About the Item

Peter Phillips Tiger-Tiger, 1968 3-D Relief made of impact-resistant polystyrene, deep-drawn, silkscreened in 8 colors, rear wall made of styrofoam and vacuum form plastic 28 7/10 × 44 3/10 × 1 inches Edition 10/250 sticker label, bears artists handwritten name and edition number 10/2000 Classic 1960s Pop Art 3-D piece rarely appears stateside. For a true 1960s aesthetic, by celebrated British Pop Art legend Peter Phillips. This is based on the original eponymous (same-titled) painting he created the same year. The uniquely shaped plastic form features vividly colored rainbows, tigers, 8-bit shapes, and other abstract forms. The backside has two holes for wall mounting. Although the stated and planned edition was 2000, only a very small number were said to have been created as the production costs and complications far exceeded expectations. (The present work is numbered only 10 from the edition) The work can be displayed as-is; no framing necessary. A dramatic piece of 1960s Pop; makes quite the statement. Peter Phillips is one of the preeminent British Pop Artists of our time. His work ranges from oils on canvas to multi-media compositions and collages. As one of the originators of Pop Art, Peter got his start at the Royal College of Arts with his fellow students David Hockney, Allen Jones, R.B. Kitaj and others of the British Pop Art Movement. When he was awarded a Harkness Fellowship he moved to New York, where he exhibited his work alongside his American counterparts Andy Warhol, Roy Lichtenstein and James Rosenquist. Peter’s work can be seen in dozens of museums and galleries worldwide. He now resides in Australia where he continues to paint and exhibit.
