STANLEY DONWOOD – WORKS ON PAPER
2011-02-07Work on Paper, a solo exhibition by the artist Stanley Donwood. Donwood will showcase a selection of rare print editions and original drawings on paper. Included in this selection are up to 13 brand new exclusive prints, as well as never before seen prints from his most acclaimed series namely ‘Atoms For Peace’, ‘London Views’ and ‘Twisted Woods’.
Renowned for his collaboration with Radiohead, Stanley has created all the band’s artwork from their second album on. Yet, Donwood’s evocative and haunting imagery reaches far beyond band’s brand, which he helped to catapult to international stardom.
Interweaving meditative illustrations with propagandist text and graphics, his work’s potency lies in the unique pairing of deeply personal emotions and political themes alongside an inherent sense of reserved wit. This winning combination allows for the examination of grave subjects not entirely seriously but without a doubt respectfully.
Exhibition runs from February 17th to March 12th, 2011
