The seriality of Street Art, created using stencils, is a form of Pop Art. By blending Marlene Dietrich and Salvador Dalí, the artist creates a "double icon" and questions the status of iconicity.

About the artist Charles Uzzell-Edwards, also known as “Pure Evil,” moved from London to California in 1990. After studying design, he produced electronic music and designed clothing for over ten years. Inspired by the West Coast graffiti scene, Edwards returned to London and became a street artist.

Farbserigraphie, 35,9 x 24,5 cm, rechts unten in Blei mit Künstlernamen signiert und Künstlersignet versehen, links unten als Nr. 27 /50 ausgewiesen. - in ausgezeichnetem Zustand - Ikone und Ironie - Die Werke von Pure Evil führen die Street Art mit der Pop Art zusammen, wobei die vermittels Schablonen erzeuge Serialität der Street Art bereits eine Mittel der Pop Art ist. Mit dem Zusammenblenden von Marlene Dietrich und Salvatore Dali schafft der Künstler nicht allein eine ‚doppelte Ikone‘ und fragt damit nach dem Status der Ikonizität, er bricht das Ikonenhafte zugleich, indem er die Geste Marcel Duchamps wiederholt, der der Ikone ‚Mona Lisa‘ einen Schnurrbart verliehen hat. zum Künstler Charles Uzzell-Edwards alias ‚Pure Evil’ zog nach einem Designstudium 1990 von London nach Kalifornien, wo er über zehn Jahre lang elektronische Musik produzierte und Kleidung entwarf. Von der Graffiti-Szene der Westküste inspiriert, kehrte er nach London zurück und betätigte sich als Street Artist. Sein einprägsames Signet war ein Vampirhase mit Reißzähnen. Später begann er Druckgrafiken und Leinwandbilder zu schaffen, bei denen oftmals Schablonen der Street Art zum Einsatz kommen. Seine Werke wurden in New York, Los Angeles, London, Paris und anderen Orten ausgestellt.

Pure Evil

Charles Uzzell-Edwards is the real name of the man behind the Pure Evil pseudonym. Born in South Wales in 1968 and son of the abstract painter John Uzzell-Edwards, art and creativity have always been around in his life.

At the beginning of the 1990s, Pure Evil left the United Kingdom to live in the United States for a few years, specifically in San Francisco. Influenced by the American West Coast's trends of the moment, he began to develop a deeper interest in the urban cultures of skateboarding, graffiti and electronic music. By then, Pure Evil began working for the clothing brand Anarchic Adjustment, taking the first steps into the world of graphic design and stencil art.

As a multitalented artist who became very involved in the electronic music scene, Pure Evil left San Francisco to spend four years in Berlin where he worked for a music production company named FAX. During this time, he missed London very much and decided to go back there.

Once settled back in the English capital, the first Pure Evil graffiti is seen on the streets. The artist met the people involved with Banksy's Project Santa's Ghetto, and his work begins to have a darker look. Pure Evil then produced his first prints with Pictures on Walls (POW).

Pure Evil has been traveling all around the world, hosting exhibitions in countries like China, Brazil and Russia as well as in all of Europe. Success during these times has been such that it has allowed him to open in 2007 his own art gallery in London's Shoreditch neighborhood. In the gallery, Pure Evil shows his own work as well as that of other artists, and there he finds his space for artistic creativity, both in visual arts and music.

In May of 2012 Pure Evil joined the BBC's TV show The Apprentice and his popularity skyrocketed. Additionally, given the success achieved with his last series, "Nightmares," we can tell that he is an artist of international importance with a very promising career ahead.
