About the Item

Silkscreen, 2016, on Somerset wove, signed and numbered from the edition of 25, published by Shapero Modern, London, printed by K2 Screens, London, image size 39.5 x 48.5 cm (15.6 x 19.1 in), sheet 50 x 63.5 cm. (19.7 x 25 in.) In 2009 the YBA artist Marcus Harvey painted one of the few contemporary depictions of Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher. It was rendered in a similar style as his best known work “Myra” (1995) a black-and-white portrait of the child killer, which was composed of children’s hand prints. “Maggie” was also a black-and-white portrait composed by casting vegetables, dildos, masks, skulls and hands in plaster and attaching to the canvas to render the portrait. The painting is comprised of over 15,000 casts of sculptural objects. A Tony Blair mask makes an appearance on the artwork as does other references to British history and identity. In 2016 Harvey created two limited edition silkscreen prints of 'Maggie' and 'Mryra' for the London Original Print Fair at the Royal Academy of Arts, published by Shapero Modern.

Silkscreen, 2016, on Somerset wove, signed and numbered from the edition of 25, published by Shapero Modern, London, printed by K2 Screens, London, image size 39.5 x 48.5 cm (15.6 x 19.1 in), sheet 50 x 63.5 cm. (19.7 x 25 in.) Marcus Harvey's 'Myra' was included in the controversial Sensation exhibition of Young British Artists at the Royal Academy of Art in London in 1997. Norman Rosenthal, the Secretary of the Royal Academy, described it as the single most important painting in the show – "a very, very cathartic picture ... It is an incredibly serious and sober work of art that needs to be seen."[4] However, it provoked angry press and public comment before the exhibition opened, including the ironic comment in an editorial in The Sun: 'Myra Hindley...
