It is signed by the artist with his Vampire Bunny tag sign monogram and was numbered by him at 38 of 50.

The print itself measures about 34 by 30 cm .

Pure Evil(formerly Charles Uzzell Edwards)is a well known and increasingly sought after graffiti/street/contemporary artist.He is influenced by the urban art of the USA and based in London.

Pure Evil is famous for his Nightmare series featuring portraits of modern icons with his trademark huge pooled teardrop,and for his cynically humorous’You can’t buy happiness-steal it! and ‘Olympic Doping Team’ poster style prints.

Pure Evil’s prints are stocked by top galleries in London,Brighton,Manchester and worldwide.

This print is from an edition of 50 prints which Pure Evil made live in front of the public at the Paris ‘car boot’ exhibition organised by Galerie Brugier Rigail.

Please see photos of screenshots from an article on an art collection website about these Bowie prints.

This early edition is less complex than the later editions of Bowie prints as it is produced with only one colour of ink but it is very striking in its simplicity.And of course it is rare because only 50 were made.

I bought the print in 2015 for my son to enjoy in his rooms at university and had it professionally framed.

It was much admired.We have displayed it at home for several years but now is the time to move it on to someone else who is a fan of David Bowie and of contemporary art.
