Description:
From Saatchi Gallery, Loan of Art, pp.98 – “A fair proportion of Galloway’s university years must have been spent in the pub, if his large-scale linocuts are anything to go by. He graduated in printmaking from the Royal College of Art London, in 2004, and many of his prints feature local East End boozers and the life that gathers there. They are teeming with incidental details, and offer a modern-day take on Hogarth’s moralizing Gin Lane and Beer Street.
