Poole, Vincent
Vincent Poole is a Pop Artist of contemporary London. In his bold large-scale photomontages he combines all the signs and symbols of modern metropolitan culture with a technique of stunning audacity. His images – of South London wide boys, King’s Cross streetwalkers, Chelsea girls and City slickers – are made up from dozens of pieces of printed celluloid, fixed with coloured pins. The effect is alive with light and colour and the buzz of the urban scene.
