Now art is ar’t the gallery in Crowngate has been chosen as one of a handful across the UK to showcase the event, which until midnight on Tuesday, May 10.

The limited silkscreen to be sold

Dermot O’Connor, gallery owner, said: “Our gallery is extremely proud to be selected as one of those to take part in this exclusive event.

“Previous similar timed releases have shown that once the event is ended, the value of the prints on the secondary market increases significantly.

“However many prints have been sold within that time by the UK galleries, that will be the edition size and they will then be numbered, and signed by Mr Brainwash.

“This is a very exclusive event from the artist and his first timed release, and the Queen’s Jubilee is the very special event that has captured his imagination.

“And it is also prestigious for Worcester, with the artist’s publisher having chosen a gallery in the city to be involved.”
