Simon Dixon was a Brighton-based artist & print maker, whose fine art pieces centred around icons of the twentieth century. Dixon’s love of pop culture & deep interest in twentieth century history combine in a truly distinctive aesthetic: referencing 1960s Pop Art, his paintings are a big, bold & colourful reworking of the traditional portrait. ‘ Elvis 68’ depicts a pop-ified portrait of the king of rock & roll. Against an inky black background, Elvis is seen in profile, guitar in h&, as he stands before a microphone wearing a black leather jacket. An iconic work of art, Dixon has captured the essence of Elvis Presley, creating a modern-day print to rival Warhol’s Marilyn.
