MAGNET's SILENT AUCTION SNEAK PEEK #2
During his long and stellar career in advertising, photographer JOHN STREET was known for the intricate collage images he created in collaboration with designer SUE TILLEY, featuring plants, fruit and vegetables. (Come to MAGNET to see two terrific examples of their work in our REMEMBERING Fundraiser exhibition.......including a pig created from thin slices of watermelon........!)
In his later years Street returned to collage using flowers, leaves and other natural materials to create most beautiful artworks with a strong Japanese influence. In the last year of his life he worked on some small designs composed of photography, collage and calligraphy in collaboration with DANIEL SILVER at Photonet Fine Art Printing at MAGNET. We have been delighted to receive two of these small works and are offering them in our Silent Auction. We are grateful to the Street family for this generous donation.
Come and place your bids for these unique artworks, among the last ever made by one of the modern greats of photography both here and in London.
Both pictures are printed on exotic handmade papers and framed in simple white acrylic frames.
