Jamie Reid helped shape the visual identity of the British punk movement with his décollage-style graphics that feature iconoclastic defacements of pop culture imagery and letters cut from newspaper headlines arranged like ransom notes. He is best known for producing the iconic cover art for the Sex Pistols’ debut album Never Mind the Bollocks, Here’s the Sex Pistols (1977), as well as the band’s singles “Anarchy in the U.K.” (1976) and “God Save the Queen” (1977), the latter based on a Cecil Beaton portrait of Queen Elizabeth II. Born into a politically active family of socialists, Reid identifies as an anarchist. He studied at the Croydon School of Art, where he became interested in the Situationists and met Malcolm McLaren, who would later become the Sex Pistols’ manager. In 2012, Reid designed an image of Vladimir Putin wearing a balaclava as a statement condemning the Russian government for its imprisonment of members of the radical feminist punk band Pussy Riot.
