Anthology I
Silkscreen on paper
James McQueen's "Anthology I" is a silkscreen on paper that exemplifies the British artist's rigorous approach to printmaking. McQueen's practice sits at the intersection of text, image, and cultural memory, and this work — part of his Anthology series — reflects his sustained interest in layering reference and visual rhythm across the surface of the sheet. The silkscreen medium allows for precise colour registration and a flat graphic quality that McQueen exploits to sharp effect. James McQueen prints are increasingly sought by collectors drawn to works that combine conceptual depth with strong visual presence. As an artist with a growing international exhibition history, McQueen occupies an important position in contemporary British art. Guy Hepner has long championed artists working across the spectrum of printmaking and mixed media, offering collectors access to works of lasting significance. James McQueen for sale at Guy Hepner represents an opportunity to acquire a work from one of the most compelling voices in contemporary print. Available for sale at Guy Hepner Gallery, New York.


James McQueen is a British artist born in 1977 whose paintings sit at the intersection of Pop sensibility, material obsession, and dry British wit. He works under a pseudonym, and his identity is secondary to the work — which is the point. What matters is what ends up on the canvas.
McQueen's paintings are built, not simply applied. He works in layers — paint over paint, colour over colour — then sands the surface back to expose what lies beneath, then seals it in lacquer. The result is a depth that photographs struggle to capture. These are surfaces you need to stand in front of.
His subject matter has ranged from reinterpreted Penguin paperback covers to politically charged commentary to the large-scale mixed-media Anthology works now available through Guy Hepner. Across all of it runs a consistent preoccupation: the visual language of mass culture, rendered monumental and unfamiliar by the seriousness of the craft brought to bear on it.
McQueen has shown extensively in London and is represented in significant private collections internationally.
