Description

Gillian Wearing. My Man (2000). Edition of 300. Silkscreen in 15 colours with 1 halftone colour set and 1 glaze. Printed on 400gsm Somerset Tub Sized Paper. Produced by Coriander Studios, London. 100 x 75 cm (40 x 30 in). Signed, dated and numbered by the artist. £295. For this print, Wearing photographed a teenaged girl sitting alone on a beachfront bench; behind her is a painted fresco of an idyllic seaside scene. Wearing asked the girl to write to her about her views on men, and has reproduced below the image her mixed thoughts, expressed in multi-coloured hand-writing, about her boyfriend and their up-and-down relationship.
