Although Guy’s work is classical in sensibility, it is also very much associated with the urban art movement through the raw themes and imagery explored.
This new show is entitled ‘Celebrity Will Eat Itself’. The work explores his feelings on the public’s obsession with the idea of celebrity, the socially dysfunctional icons of our times, and the potentially damaging effects of Hollywood idolatry on both the idols and the idol-worshippers.
