July 21st 2016, 6pm-8pm
Stik will be signing copies of his book ‘Stik’ published by Penguin at Strand Bookshop. The historical venue is just minutes away from Stik’s iconic water tower ‘Union’ on Union Square.
For the first time ever Stik shares his personal archive of working photographs and recounts the social and personal motivations behind each of his murals in this beautifully designed and produced art book, from unauthorised pieces painted on the streets of East London when the artist was homeless through to the giant international murals for which he has become famous. This book is the culmination of 15 years of work and is a unique insight into the artist’s world.
This 220 page hardback edition is bound in lush red canvas and finished with black and white foils. The first edition comes with a free, limited edition lithograph poster in one of two unique colours, Teal and Orange which Stik will be signing on the day.
