R.I.P. Prince

I am very sad to hear about Prince’s passing. In 2003, I was doing a show in Minneapolis, and I decided to use the opportunity to create a web of puns with this poster. Prince is one of the most famous figures from Minneapolis, and I create screen prints, often of pop icons; his band in the ‘80s was called the Revolution, and my work uses a lot of revolutionary material like the Che Guevara image; so it all seemed to fit together nicely. Thanks for all the great music Prince.
