Art on the Underground is launching a pop-up
shop at Piccadilly Circus, selling limited-edition prints from artists
including Sarah Lucas and Wolfgang Tillmans.
The
Print Shop space has been designed by Simon Jones, with graphics by
APFEL. The Print Shop identity itself takes inspiration from London
Underground signage.
There
will be 15 works on sale at the space, all special commissions by Art
on the Underground as part of the 15 for 150 project, which marks the
150
th anniversary of the Tube.
Other artists involved include Gillian Wearing, Pablo Bronstein and Lawrence Weiner.
Rebecca
Heald, Art on the Underground curator, says, ‘Print Shop presents a
fantastic opportunity, in a unique and alternative setting, for
commuters and collectors alike to own works inspired by the Tube from
some of the world’s greatest contemporary artists.’
Print Shop is at Piccadilly Circus Underground station, London W1, from 8-19 April
