A large early silkscreen by John Stezaker, who was among the first wave of British Conceptual artists. He is today perhaps best known for his subversive photo-montage works of the 2000s, he has made sharp, dramatic use of found images for decades. Working from vintage postcards, movie stills and book illustrations, he adjusts, redacts, inverts and slices pictures together to create uncanny works of art that draw on the Surrealist collages of Max Ernst as much as on the legacy of British Pop.
