*The David Costa Collection

David Costa: ‘Ink Icon was a company shared between renowned photographer Gered Mankowitz and myself (Wherefore Art?) to explore some of the major and most familiar images in Gered’s archive, particularly those of the Stones and Hendrix, and to produce limited edition silkscreens using diverse treatments. Of the two Jimi Hendrix images, Purple and Gold was subsequently adopted by Alan Douglas to front his 1992 Ultimate Experience compilation boxset and associated campaign materials. Assorted tests, variants and samples from both Stones and Hendrix editions are included in this sale.’
