How Banksy saved art history
£25.00Few would dispute that Banksy is the most famous urban artist in the world today. That he is also one of the most perceptive art historians of our age might come as a surprise to many. Taken together, the myriad memorable works the street artist has created over the course of the past thirty years, since his emergence in the Bristol underground scene in the early 1990s, constitute an audacious commentary on the history of image-making – a captivating critique waiting to be pieced together. Armed with little more than stencils, spray paint and an anonymizing cloak of after-hours darkness, Banksy has forged an alluring identity for himself as an incorrigible prankster who doesn’t embrace tradition, but shreds it. This book provides a new take on the history of art as parodied, reinterpreted and ultimately reinforced by the international phenomenon that is Banksy.

Hope I get old before I die
£25.00From the author of ‘Abbey Road’ comes the story of how enduring rock icons like Pink Floyd, Bruce Springsteen and many more have remained in the ever changing music game. When Paul McCartney closed Live Aid in July 1985 we thought he was rock’s Grand Old Man. He was forty-three years old. As the forty years since have shown he – and many others of his generation – were just getting started. Hence this is a story without precedent, a story in which Elton John plays a royal funeral, Mick Jagger gets a knighthood, Bob Dylan picks up the Nobel Prize, the Beatles become, if anything, bigger than the Beatles and it’s beginning to look as though all of the above will, thanks to the march of technology, be playing Las Vegas for ever.
