James McQueen

James McQueen, a British artist working under a pseudonym, is known for his painted reinterpretations of iconic images, often featuring the Penguin Books logo on satirical covers infused with humor and irony. His vibrant style, influenced by vintage book covers, Pop art, and graffiti, includes a recurring monkey motif reminiscent of Banksy, exploring themes of anonymity. McQueen's art addresses social and political issues, including commentary on the coronavirus pandemic, with some works supporting charitable initiatives like the NHS. He has exhibited in various solo and group shows, including at the Halcyon Gallery in London.
