Product story
This print is from a series related to Turner Prize-winning artist Jeremy Deller‘s ‘English Magic’ exhibition created for the 55th Venice Biennale in 2013. Exploring themes such as typically English traditions, cultural history and mythology Deller’s playful imagery often hovers between the real and the imagined.
In English Magic, Deller presents the iconic celebrity magician Paul Daniels in fluorescent colour conjuring a pentrogram, a significant occult symbol used in religious ‘magick’ (an entirely separate practice from stage magic). This deft weaving together of high and low culture is distinctive of Deller’s unique and thought-provoking work.
Artist Sales: this work is sold by the artist. The sale is facilitated by RA Enterprises (RAE) for which RAE receives a commission from the artist only.
