Sending out artworks safely and securely requires considerable packaging. We have a specialist team in place to do this, but as yet we have found no way around the excess packaging required to do the job properly. We are of course very aware of the environmental impact and encourage all our clients to reuse or recycle the packaging. Our packing team saves all bubble wrap, foam and cardboard from gallery purchases, which may be re-appropriated to package your orders.

This print is derived from a tapestry that was featured at Marc Quinn's inaugural solo exhibit in Berlin in 2015. The exhibit delved into the theme of conflict and its portrayal in mass media. Quinn's fascination with how images take on a life of their own when widely disseminated is evident in his tapestries, which subvert the conventional approach to historical paintings by depicting grassroots uprisings that are laid on the ground and gradually eroded over time.

One of the key players in the British art boom of the 1990s, Quinn made his name with 'Self', a frozen sculpture of his own head, made with ten pints of his blood and exhibited in Saatchi’s renowned 1997 exhibition, Sensation (he now recasts his head at five-year intervals). His fourth plinth marble sculpture Alison Lapper Pregnant was hailed as 'one of the most important art works of our time'...
