LA-Jonathan Yeo-Pressrelease for US-Final-1 Press Release Jonathan Yeo – Porn in the USA 9 July - 8 August 2010 Lazarides is delighted to announce the solo exhibition of Jonathan Yeo in Beverly Hills. The third show in the temporary LA space will be Yeo’s most ambitious exhibition to date and promises to be one of tantalizing surprises. Celebrated for his skillfully oil-painted portraits of famous subjects, his sitters have included Dennis Hopper, Nicole Kidman, and Tony Blair. In 2007, Yeo's work took a new direction when the White House reneged on a commission for him to paint a portrait of President George W Bush. He went ahead with the picture anyway, creating a collaged likeness out of hardcore pornographic magazines. The image was unveiled at Lazarides in London in August 2007 and immediately went viral, becoming notorious around the world. Yeo has continued to explore the possibilities of collage and has immortalised a series of 21st Century icons, including Lucian Freud, Hugh Hefner and Paris Hilton in similar fashion. He has also created original images featuring nudes and botanical studies, the beauty of which belie their source material. The visual trickery of collage allows Yeo to deceive the viewer as the explicit tone is disregarded at first glance, yet on closer inspection the realisation that the perfect flesh tones are in fact flesh writhing in passion makes you giggle and then giggle even more when the model is taken into account. This exhibition features his newest and most provocative works to date, including some surprising new portraits, and a version of his controversial wallpaper design unveiled recently at the new Soho House club in West Hollywood. For further information, please contact Jessica Draper at the gallery on [email protected] or +44 (0)207 636 5443. Ext.23 Notes to Editors Jonathan Yeo was born in London in 1970. The son of a former Conservative minister, he was never formally trained at art school instead he taught himself how to paint in his early 20’s while recovering from lymphatic cancer. He rose to prominence for his iconic portrayals of subjects as diverse as Nicole Kidman, Prince Philip, Grayson Perry, Erin O'Connor, Rupert Murdoch, and Minnie Driver, which are frequently exhibited at the National Portrait Gallery in London. His work is in the collection of that gallery, the House of Commons and the Bibliotheque Nationale de France, as well as the private collections of Andrew Lloyd Webber, Damien Hirst and Dennis Hopper. His depiction of Tony Blair in 2008 became an internationally recognized image of the former PM with his blood red poppy alluding to the loss of UK troops in the Iraq war. Perhaps his most familiar image is the portrait of George W Bush, which was made entirely of collaged pornographic magazines and gained Yeo both media and art world notoriety. Another well known collaged portrait, of hotel heiress Paris Hilton, was bought by British artist Damien Hirst from an exhibition in New York. More recently his dramatic portrait of new British prime minister David Cameron was sold at an auction for £200,000 ($300,000). Yeo has recently curated all the art for the extraordinary new Soho House club at 9200 Sunset Boulevard. The collection includes work by such diverse talents as Ed Ruscha, Tracey Emin, Raymond Pettibon, Mark Ryden, Faile, Damien Hirst, David Choe and himself! This is his first solo exhibition in the US. Previous shows include Blue Period at Lazarides, London (2008), Jonathan Yeo’s Sketchbook at Eleven Fine Art, London (2006) and Election Art at Portcullis House, London (2001). Yeo has shown in numerous group exhibitions including: Peeping Tom Curated by Keith Coventry at Vegas Gallery, London (2010), The Grifters at Lazarides Rathbone, London (2009), Up Against the Wall at Ileana Tounta Contemporary Art Center, Athens (2009), The Outsiders at The New Art Gallery, Walsall (2008) , The Naked Portrait at Compton Verney, Warwickshire (2007), BP Portrait Award at the National Portrait Gallery, London (2006) and ArtAid 2002 at Bloomberg Space, London (2002).

  • Jonathan Yeo at Lazarides Gallery
    Press Release: Jonathan Yeo ‘BLUE PERIOD’ at the Lazarides Gallery London 6 June – 11 July 2008 Jonathan Yeo, leading painter of the glitterati and politicians of our time, will present a series of new works, inspired by his famous George W Bush porn collage, at Lazarides Gallery London. Yeo’s skill in portrait painting has seen him receive commissions from a huge variety of high-profile personalities, from David Walliams to Erin O’ Connor, Dennis Hopper to Bush. Yeo’s depiction of Tony Blair in 2008 with its blood red remembrance poppy has become the iconic image of the British Prime Minister around the world. When Yeo’s talks with George Bush’s team slowly ground to a halt, he decided to use his art to offend a man he himself found offensive. The Bush porn portrait (illustrated above) became instantly famous internationally, representing a combination of both political satire and Yeo’s obsession with producing highly-crafted pictures. Now, using the same meticulous techniques, Yeo has created a unique series of collages that, on first glance, look like painterly works of art, but on close inspection, are for top-shelf viewing only. Demure, neo-Classical nudes and portraits and head Playboy honcho Hugh Hefner appear multi-dimensional and picturesque, but actually hide a multitude of sins. Through gradual layering of the thinnest pages from pornographic publications, Yeo carefully builds up variations in skin tone, nuance of colour and skillfull use of light and shade. The result is a series of works that signifies a dramatic new departure for the artist.
