James McQueen
Give Me Solutions, Not Fucking Problems

2022

About the Item

Mixed media, archival pigment and silkscreen on deckle-edged satin paper 101.6 × 67.3 cm Edition of 195 hand-signed and numbered by the artist James McQueen, born in 1977, is a British contemporary artist recognized for his evocative paintings that reimagine vintage book covers, particularly those of Penguin Books. Operating under a pseudonym, McQueen chooses to remain anonymous, allowing his art to speak independently. His works are characterized by a deliberate portrayal of wear and tear, achieved through layering and sanding techniques that mimic the aged appearance of well-loved books. The incorporation of bold, often satirical titles and the recurring motif of a spray-painted monkey wearing a hat—his personal insignia—adds depth and a playful edge to his pieces. McQueen's art draws inspiration from Pop Art and Abstract Expressionism, echoing influences from artists like Andy Warhol and Mark Rothko.
