Crass Art and Other Pre Post-Modernist Monsters

by Gee Vaucher

Art. In its original form, Gee V's work is intricate and tactile, and while the imagery is sometimes almost overwhelming, the primary concerns are those of the painter; dealing with form and space. Mere newsprint would hardly seem able to do justice to its subtle tones. When the work is printed, the space becomes more simple and the graphic images take on another life. The visual concerns are those of delivery, and the message is clear. Painstakingly executed and almost private paintings are transformed into powerful illustrations by the brilliance of Gee V's vision. While the stenches of corruption and injustice do linger, it is an honorable thing to point or even lift a finger -- Ian Dury.

really great if you like Crass, but not so great if you don't know them.

Its anarcho-political in nature so it might peak your interests in that sense. Her art challenges the status quo of the ruling and the bourgeois expecting people to do something about their environment and not just live in it.

Awesome collection of Gee's artwork. A must for anyone interested in peace punk or radical art
