DJ Monopz extends Alec Monopoly's practice beyond the flat surface of painting and silkscreen into three dimensions — a sculptural figure that brings his Richie Rich character into physical space with the same energy and visual confidence that his two-dimensional works deploy. The DJ configuration is natural territory for Monopoly: music and art have always been the two cultural forces whose collision generated the street art world, and the DJ — the cultural figure who creates something new from existing records — is a perfect analogy for the appropriation-based practice he has always employed.
Available through Creed Gallery, Ascot, for collectors across Berkshire, Surrey, and London.
