About The ART and the ARTIST

Set of 3 Pop Edition Prints of Fidel Castro published by the L-13 Gallery in 2007. All very rare indeed and one an AP 1/1!!!

Rare opportunity to buy all three as a set - all with incredible detail, don't miss out!

These will look absolutely magnificent framed together!

Cauty has jointly exhibited with Banksy at Dismaland and his Small World Re-enactments are phenomenal.  Research his immense back-catalogue, you will be stunned by his imaginative productions.

The new SKY ARTS Documentary WHO KILLED THE KLF featuring Cauty and Bill Drummond will only raise the profile of Cautys work and the value.

James Cauty has now been publishing works through the L-13 in it's three previous guises ('The Aquarium', 'The Aquarium L-13' and the 'L-13 Light Industrial Workshop') for 19 years since the first Blacksmoke Stamps of Mass Destruction 'Gas Mask Queen' pieces.

His output over that time has been prolific, classy, quirky, dark, humorous, controversial, thought-provoking and delightfully edgy and hard-hitting, making him really like-able and collectable.  The rarity of all of his work just amplifies this collectability.  There is always something for every budget with Jimmy's work too.

This piece was not issued with provenance on purchase, but this can be very easily obtained by courteously contacting Steve at the L-13 and perhaps making a very small donation to the British Art Resistance for the trouble.

Your item will arrive quickly and well-packaged.

Postage – Additional fees apply depending on geographical location. Will be sent flat packaged

Best of luck...I don't expect this to be around long, so just grab it!!!

A great artist...an iconic gallery...amazing value-for-money, rare British art at it's best and increasing in collect-ability and value .
