Limited Time Only
Released as part of Boy George’s debut collection with Castle Fine Art, ‘Purple Reign’ is a vividly sharp portrait of musical revolutionary, Prince.
The title refers to his sixth studio album, Purple Rain, which is considered a groundbreaking masterpiece, merging pop, rock and funk like no album before. It saw Prince further challenge and stretch the boundaries of sexuality and masculinity through his image.
Featuring his now iconic high collar, purple trench coat with studded shoulder panel, in this portrait we see Boy George’s almost punk vision of Prince with sweeping, dyed hair and barbed edges. He recalls a time early in his career when he met a curiously silent Prince over dinner, where Boy George promptly left. “I'm always amazed when I meet Geminis that are nothing like me”, he says.
The subjects featured in this limited-edition collection are some of the most pictured figures of the last 50 years; David Bowie, Madonna, Prince, Boy George. But what makes Boy George’s interpretation of them unique is perspective. We’re seeing his vision of these icons from the eras that speak to him, helping us understand him at individual points in time.
Each are available individually, or as a set of four.

THE FINER DETAILS
Multi-step Production process.
Firstly, depending on the prints requirements, an initial print pass using archival pigments is used to map out the design (this has been used on “Colour By Numbers” and “Purple Reign” which then have silkscreen overlays). Two of the works, “Madame X” and “Yamamoto” are predominantly silkscreen. Next, sections are picked out using “glitter gloss”; a process which involves screening inks containing fine glitter suspended within. Further embellishment is then added to finish the works; this being a silkscreen varnish to pick out George’s black line work and silver leaf (silver leaf is used on “Madame X” and “Purple Reign)

The artist
Boy George
Boy George is a pure creative. For him, art is everything.
Influenced by people from his past and present, and visions in nature and architecture, his art is quintessentially Boy George - loud, vivid, punk, iconic. Sometimes representing a specific person, sometimes representing us all, each piece tells a story. A story that we must discover for ourselves.
