American Psycho

Silkscreen Paper Edition Image Size: 12 x 16 inches Framed Size: 16 x 20 inches Edition Size: 75 The Connor Brothers have built their reputation on appropriating familiar imagery and giving it a provocative new context, and their latest limited edition is unlikely to pass unnoticed. Reworking the cover of Bret Easton Ellis’s controversial cult novel American Psycho, the acclaimed duo replace its infamous author with Donald J. Trump. Set against a red, white and blue background with a subtle Stars and Stripes motif, the composition brings together literature, popular culture and contemporary politics in The Connor Brothers’ unmistakably subversive style. Characteristic of their wider practice, American Psycho by Donald J. Trump plays with the associations we instinctively make between image, language and subject, while leaving its interpretation firmly in the hands of the viewer. Released as a textured paper print measuring an exclusive limited edition of just 75 and measuring 16x20" framed, this striking new work continues The Connor Brothers’ exploration of contemporary culture through humour, appropriation and satire.
