| "The Rave in the Hague By Mr Mitty" |
| "Mr Mitty combines photomontage, collage, and fine art, to create a striking and distinctive aesthetic. Merging cultural references - from Hollywood stars and musicians, to members of the Muppets gang - Mr Mitty’s prints are a smart and playful take on the contemporary fascination with celebrity culture. ‘The Rave in the Hague’ appropriates ‘The Concert’, the seventeenth century portrait by Gerard van Honthorst which depicts a merry party of people, gathered around a table while drinking and lute playing. In place of the table, Mr Mitty has painted a large-scale mixing desk, transforming Dutch concert into a latter-day rave. Brilliantly conceived, and expertly executed, Mr Mitty’s ironic splicing of traditional and contemporary imagery is pure genius."

Merging cultural references - from Hollywood stars and musicians, to members of the Muppets gang - Mr Mitty’s prints are a smart and playful take on the contemporary fascination with celebrity culture. ‘The Reincarnation of Socrates’ appropriates the eighteenth century portrait by Jacques-Louis David, which depicts the Greek philosopher in the last moments before his execution, giving his final lesson to his faithful disciples. But hang on, this looks more like a resurrection than a death…! With his eye for ironic humour, Mr Mitty reimagines the scene, shifting Socrates’ wise gesture to resemble a rousing call: taking his goblet in hand, the thinker beckons his followers to the strip club, which is in full swing in the background. Brilliantly conceived, and expertly executed, Mr Mitty’s ironic splicing of traditional and contemporary imagery is pure genius."

Brilliantly conceived, and expertly executed, Mr Mitty’s ironic splicing of traditional and contemporary imagery is pure genius."

Mr Mitty has hilariously updated the image: the little dog is no longer sitting obediently but is crouched in the moment of defecation, while the woman poses for the painter, entirely unawares. Fantastically funny, and expertly executed, Mr Mitty’s ironic splicing of traditional and contemporary imagery is pure genius."

Yet Mr Mitty has tweaked the image to foreshadow America’s fascination with UFOs, that would sweep the nation a century later: the heavenly glow suddenly becomes other-worldly, as spaceships descend from the clouds, surfing above the quietly grazing deer. Brilliantly conceived, and expertly executed, Mr Mitty’s ironic splicing of traditional and contemporary imagery is pure genius."

| "Crane - A3 By Lucy Bryant" |
| "Lucy Bryant is a contemporary artist and graphic designer, whose work is influenced by Pop art and the Punk music scene. Responding to contemporary culture, Bryant’s art subverts the everyday and the banal, always striving to disrupt the ordinary and create something entirely new. Her recent series appropriates the classic, antiquated landscape painting: steering away from the iconic work of the masters, Bryant favours the unloved and the unknown, those over-worked pastiches of a Turner or a Constable, that fill the tables of junk shops. Onto these, Bryant has added anachronistic motifs to create a jarring and unexpected end result. ‘Crane’ depicts a painting dated 1837, which details knights preparing to leave for battle under the shadow of a stolid, Medieval castle. In the background, a crane hovers, as though completing work on the stronghold: perhaps it will be finished when the gallant horsemen return?"

| "Ishtar By Magnus Gjoen" |
| "Magnus Gjoen - former designer for Vivienne Westwood - knows a thing or two about style. Having recently turned his hand to the art of print making, Gjoen creates images that are full of startling beauty as well as a profundity of thought: his art explores the interaction between power and fragility, juxtaposing the two states for maximum conceptual effect. Gjoen’s work blends a range of styles, incorporating a street and pop aesthetic into a fine art approach. Like a kaleidoscope, ‘Ishtar’ present a perfectly symmetrical image, set against a jet-black disc. At the centre of the circle sits a skull, surrounded by stag beetles, their legs intertwined to create a delicate, spiderweb-like design. Skull and insect alike have been plastered with Baroque, floral patterns, which seem to melt into the inky black background, highlighting the gossamer line between life and death. Brilliantly iconic ‘Ishtar’ is a triumph of contemporary print making."

| "With a roll-call of artistic influences - from Hitchcock to Shakespeare, Banksy to the Pre-Raphaelites - it’s no surprise that contemporary artist Copyright produces prints of such richness and diversity. With a strong street-art aesthetic, Copyright employs stencils, spray-paint and brush strokes to achieve his culturally attuned works of art. Commenting on the flawed idealism and unattainable visions of beauty presented in fashion, music and popular culture, Copyright’s images of the female form look back to classicism and myth, producing highly stylised depictions of beautiful women, adorned with flowers, butterflies and angel wings, while maintaining a modern-day edge. ‘One Red Rose Forever - Silver’ depicts an illustrated woman, looking over her shoulder towards the viewer. Set against a silver leaf background, Copyright has left the muse in black and white, adding colour only to her red, backless dress, and her heavily tattooed arm, which depicts a blossoming rose, a skull, and the titular words, printed across a scroll. To complete the print, Copyright has added delicate moths and butterflies, beautifully highlighting themes of transience and ephemerality."

With a flare for fine art technique, all of Berner’s ink drawings are brought to life with colour and texture, often applying paint drips and splatters, before the print-making process. A twist on Robert Indiana’s iconic print, Classic Sky Love, Berner’s ‘Love Pink’ depicts the word ‘LOVE’ against a baby-pink background, the letters stacked together, as in Indiana’s work. Yet, in his characteristically surrealist style, Berner has formed the word from an unholy host of illustrated figures: a frog in a crown; naked angels; sexually perverse couples wearing gimp masks. ‘Love Pink’ may be a distortion of romantic ideals, but one thing is certain: we love Berner’s print."

Inspired by the intricacy and detail of natural history drawings, Giffard has amassed an impressive portfolio of ornithological artworks. Her pieces brilliantly capture the exoticism of the creatures, while translating the natural beauty into striking, graphic icons, each with a unique and personal touch. ‘Thirty-Five Birds’ is no exception: against a white background, Giffard has painted the colourful heads of thirty-five different bird types. From the Toucan to the Jay, the Blackbird to the Blue Tit, Giffard’s print reminds us that even the everyday birds possess their own captivating exoticism. Minimally composed, with a graphic sensitivity, Giffard has allowed the sumptuous use of colour and distinctive drawing style to do all the talking - or should we say the tweeting!"

Merging the playful with the tragic, the absurd with the endearing, Moore produces highly graphic images, bold in their colour and compositional technique. ‘Ice Cream Meltdown’ is no exception: against a highly saturated, turquoise coloured background, a classic ’99 ice cream dominates the frame, complete with melting drips, coursing down the cone. Yet, in true surreal fashion, Moore confounds our expectations: a closer look reveals not a deliciously whipped, frozen treat, but a fiery mushroom cloud, billowing after an atomic explosion. Not your average meltdown on top of a sugary ice-cream cone - and not your average screen print either: Moore’s work is brilliantly unique and devilishly spirited."

With an impressive roll-call of clients - from Chanel to the Sultan of Oman - Griffiths’ work is informed by his background as a gold wire embroidery designer: delicate lines of fluidity course through his work, which he creates from various (and sometimes surprising) materials, including ink, graphite, brandy and whiskey. ‘Reverie’ uses an array of dynamic lines, shapes and colours to create the face of a woman in half-profile. Crafted from an explosive palette of aquamarine and earthy brown, Griffiths has weaved the delicate visage from soft swathes of intricately illustrated foliage, each line brimming with a life of its own. Sketchy lines meet drips, splashes, and daubs, to produce this striking example of the abstract shading into the figurative: a truly beautiful piece of contemporary art."

His memorable moniker hints at the ungraspable nature of his art, which shifts from piece to piece, never the same while always seeking to probe the role of the artwork. Poignantly, the name Agent X also alludes to a brutal moment in American history: X signifies the last name commonly given to African American slaves and, working under this pseudonym, the elusive artist strives to honour the victims of this history, seeing himself as “a slave to my art in a twisted way.” ‘Cicely and Mary - Yellow’ depicts the mirror image of two, delicate fairies, flying symmetrically towards one another, each posing balletically while brandishing a wand in one hand. Agent X creates a layering effect, in which the outlines of the fairies appear to have been cut from the print’s yellow background, revealing a richly coloured, Baroque-style, floral pattern behind.
