Jeremy Deller
One of Britain’s most celebrated contemporary artists, Jeremy Deller has pushed the boundaries of art by making collaboration a central component of his practice. His best known works are politically and socially charged participatory performances that require the public’s involvement. “That’s what I’m interested in as an artist, when the spectator becomes the artwork or becomes a part of an artwork”, says Deller. In this way he assumes the roles of artistic producer, publisher, filmmaker, collaborator, curator, parade organizer, and cultural archivist. In Uses of Literacy (1997), for example, he hosted an exhibition created by fans of the Manic Street Preachers, which brings together paintings, collages, drawings, books, poetry, and ephemera inspired by the band’s lyrics. Further exploring the social meanings of subcultures, for Acid Brass (1997) Deller commissioned a traditional British brass band to play contemporary acid house music. The artist has been particularly concerned with the diverse nature of British culture–its people, icons, folklore, history and politics. Evoking particular events from the past, interpreting present situations, and imagining future moments, the artist offers celebrations and critiques of England. Most exemplary, in Battle of Orgreave (2001) he staged a public reenactment of the violent 1984 Miners’ Strike against police using eight-hundred historical re-enactors and two-hundred former miners who had been part of the original conflict. Jeremy Deller won the Turner Prize in 2004 and represented Britain at the 2013 Venice Biennale. Monographic exhibitions of his work include have been presented at the Centre for Visual Arts in Cardiff, the Wattis Institute in San Francisco, Centre Pompidou, Barbican Art Gallery in London, Kunstverein in Munich, Palais de Tokyo in Paris, New Museum in New York, Hammer Museum in Los Angeles, Chicago’s Museum of Contemporary Art, and the Hayward Gallery in London.

- Shepard Fairey Liberte, Egalite, Fraternite Signed & Dated Print France StreetBy Shepard FaireyLocated in Draper, UT"I originally created this image in response to the terror attacks at the Bataclan and other parts of Paris in late 2015. At that terrible moment I wanted to create an image of support to show solidarity with Parisians and French people. Freedom, equality, fraternity – those are all things that I think democratic societies value. I intended for it to be interpreted and embraced by french people in a broad sense; however, I’d like to see those actions be meaningful. When I saw the attack on my mural and read some of the meaning behind it, I realized that it was done as a statement to oppose injustice. I side with people who oppose injustice, especially regarding human rights, and my beliefs in peace, harmony, and equality – all of which I work to embody through my art. If this image is used by people that don't incorporate those principles, I disapprove of that. I do not want this image to be hijacked for those who don't believe in its meaning. We're all part of shaping the world the way we want it to be and everyone should play their role, me included, in making sure that those terms are defined through action. That is why I am releasing a new version of the print that says, "actions are more important than words." If we do that properly, I think liberty, equality, and fraternity are all good things to keep in mind and continue to define in the most positive ways possible. For all the times those principles have been abandoned or have not been defined positively, I included a teardrop on Marianne. I believe in using my art to shed light on issues and support people who do work on the ground for those issues. I hope that this image's best intention can be realized as we work towards a better future." -Shepard Fairey Materials Fine Art Cream Speckletone Paper Size 36 × 24 in 91.4 × 61 cm Rarity Open edition Medium Print Condition Print is in pristine condition and has been stored flat since purchase.
