PAST EVENT Artist Heath Kane

Heath Kane is an Australian artist, based in the UK.

Heath is synonymous with creating bold, striking, often lurid art. He embeds subtle, subversive themes that encourage a political or social conversation. Heath’s approach to art has always been driven by the practice of design thinking: combining his experience in commercial art with the origins of pop-art. He focuses on creating simple, iconic and memorable pieces that have a lasting impression.

Heath has collaborated with Wired Magazine and Saatchi Art, and has partnered with Penguin Books to create the last published covers of George Orwell’s most famous books. Heath most recently created artwork for the Glastonbury festival.

He exhibits his work in solo shows all around the globe and his originals and prints frequently appear in leading galleries worldwide.

'Cultural Devolution' is an exhibition that raises questions about life in a democratic society. It is part of the broader ‘Happy Propaganda’ collection. The exhibition explores how we became to be be a society that is so politically divisive.
