“YOU DON’T KNOW THE HALF OF IT” is the British artist, JAMES MCQUEEN’s first exhibition at the gallery. McQueen’s art is known for using book templates, typography, and pop art to create playful, sometimes provocative, and cynical artworks.
His art is made by multilayer technique in order to create book covers not as they were first published, but as they are today: used, faded, and stained to represent the history and the journey of an artwork highlighting that every artwork has its own story.
To create this effect, McQueen uses spray paint, stencil, and vibrant colour palette, as well as his trademark monkey design.
James McQueen’s exhibition is on the ground floor of the gallery.
