One colour screenprint. Antony Micallef is of the most promising artists in Britain today, having developed a cult following with his distinctive brand of graphic laden, figurative paintings. Juxtaposing the saccharine seduction of colourful pop imagery and consumerism alongside its dark and troubling underbelly, Antony Micallef’s dreamlike images are inspired by the works of old masters, fashion magazines, popular culture, graffiti and Japanese cartoons alike.
Antony Micallef’s work has been described both as ‘Caravaggio meets Manga’ and ‘Bacon in Disneyland’, with Antony himself saying “my work is like watching a Disney movie which slowly turns into violent pornograpy.” Excellent condition, never framed.
