Paul Harvey (born 7 May 1960) is a British musician and Stuckist artist, whose work was used to promote their 2004 show at the Liverpool Biennial.〔Milner, Frank ed. ''The Stuckists Punk Victorian'', p.74, National Museums Liverpool 2004. ISBN 1-902700-27-9〕 His paintings draw on pop art and the work of Alphonse Mucha,〔 and often depict celebrities, including Madonna.〔〔http://www.spoonfed.co.uk/artist/exhibitions-1429/paul-harvey-8531/ Harvey's works often feature celebrities such as Madonna or Emily Mann and stylistically owe a debt both to Pop Art and to the Czech Art Nouveau painter Alfons Mucha.〕 ==Life and career== Paul Harvey was born in Burton upon Trent, Staffordshire. He attended Burton Grammar School (1971–78) and North Staffordshire Polytechnic (1978–82) for Foundation Art and BA (Hons) Design.〔 In 1982 he moved to London and played in post-punk bands including Happy Refugees; in 1986 he moved to Newcastle to join Pauline Murray's band.〔 During this time, he co-published-and-drew ''Mauretania Comics'' with comics artist Chris Reynolds, and also taught graffiti art.〔 In 2001, he became a full-time lecturer in graphic design at North Tyneside College (now Tyne Metropolitan College, within The Creative Studios department). The same year, he joined the Stuckism art group, founding a Newcastle branch.〔 In 2002, he joined Murray's re-formed punk band Penetration; he curated the show, ''Stuck in Newcastle'', at the Newcastle Arts Centre,〔 and was a joint winner of the Stuckists ''Real Turner Prize Show 2002''.〔Prudames, David. ("The Real Turner Prize 2002" ), Culture 24. Retrieved 19 September 2009.〕 He showed with the group at the Wednesbury Museum in 2003.〔Buckman, David. ''Dictionary of Artists in Britain since 1945: Volume 1'', p. 694, Art Dictionaries, Bristol, 2006. ISBN 0-9532609-5-X〕 2003–2005, he gained an MA in Fine Art Practice at the University of Northumbria.〔〔 In 2004, he was the Stuckist co-curator with Hiroko Oshima of the Ryu Art Group of the show, ''Members Only: the Artist Group in Japan and Britain'',〔 which took place at the Bailiffgate Museum, Alnwick. He was a featured artist in ''The Stuckists Punk Victorian'' show at the Walker Art Gallery for the 2004 Liverpool Biennial,〔("The Stuckists Punk Victorian" ), Walker Art Gallery, National Museums Liverpool. Retrieved 19 March 2008.〕 His painting of artist and model Emily Mann was used to promote the show. The painting was based on a photograph of Mann by Charles Thomson and was originally intended to promote the Stuckists ''Real Turner Prize Show 2003'': at that time the placard contained the text, "Serota needs a good spanking".〔 However, according to Harvey, another artist Gina Bold "got really angry and started a debate about the S&M/fetish allusion. She got really pissed off with me because I didn’t agree with her. Then it got a bit nasty—the whole thing was just daft. Then the show got cancelled—and it had all been a complete waste of my fucking time."〔 He later repainted the placard with a woman's face, and it was used in this form for the Walker show.〔 In 2006, he was one of the ten "leading Stuckists"〔("Go West" ), ''The Daily Telegraph''. Retrieved 29 March 2008.〕 in the Go West exhibition at Spectrum London gallery. In 2007, he was in the show, ''I Won't Have Sex with You as Long as We're Married'', at the A Gallery.〔("I Won't Have Sex with You as long as We're Married" ), stuckism.com. Retrieved 19 March 2008.〕 In 2008, he was commissioned by Job cigarette papers to create a set of campaign posters with a stylistic reference to Alphonse Mucha, who had created earlier paintings for the firm.〔Fahy, Michael. ("Zig Zag has a new paper round" ), ''Crain's Manchester Business'', 16 June 2008. Retrieved 30 August 2010.〕 Harvey made works featuring famous double acts to emphasise the sales message of "The Original Double", a reference to the twin-size packets of papers made by Job.〔 Harvey's enthusiasm for the project came about because "Mucha is one of his heroes", said Mark Ross, the director of Glorious Creative agency managing the campaign.〔 The work created some controversy:〔("Famous doubles" ), ''3:AM Magazine'', 19 October 2009. Retrieved 30 August 2010.〕 Gilbert and George gave their endorsement to the images, but The Mighty Boosh and The White Stripes were not pleased to be featured.〔 ''Famous Doubles'', a show of the original paintings used for the posters, was promoted at the Wanted Gallery in Notting Hill by Fraser Kee Scott, director of the A Gallery.〔〔(The Wanted Gallery has since been renamed GG Gallery )〕 In 2009, his painting of Charles Saatchi was banned from the window display of the Artspace Gallery in Maddox Street, London, on the grounds that it was "too controversial for the area".〔("Charles Saatchi painting gets Stuckists shut down" ), Spoonfed Media, 25 August 2010. Retrieved 28 August 2010.〕〔("Mr Saatchi in the frame" ), ''Evening Standard'', 24 August 2010. Retrieved 28 August 2010.〕 It was the centrepiece of the show, ''Stuckist Clowns Doing Their Dirty Work'', the first exhibition of the Stuckists in Mayfair,〔 and showed Saatchi with a sheep at his feet and a halo made from a cheese wrapper.〔 The Saatchi Gallery said that Saatchi "would not have any problem" with the painting's display.〔Wilkinson, Tara Loader.("Mayfair divided over Charles Saatchi cheese painting" ), Dow Jones, 26 August 2010. Retrieved 28 August 2010.〕 The gallery announced they were shutting down the show.〔 Harvey said: :I did it to make Saatchi look friendly and human. It's a ludicrous decision because it's not even a controversial painting. It's just Dairylea cheese and a sheep and some lemons, because he likes lemonade.〔 The Stuckists considered legal action,〔Kay, Richard. ("Robert Hanson's X-rated lawsuit" ), ''Daily Mail'', 26 August 2010. Retrieved 28 August 2010.〕 and co-ordinated, on the event's Facebook page, a campaign of emails to the gallery,〔Carmichael, Kim. ("Painting by North East artist sparks row in art world" ), ''The Journal'', 28 August 2010. Retrieved 28 August 2010.〕 which agreed to exhibit the painting in the window and to continue the show.〔 As of 2010, Harvey is researching a PhD on Stuckism at Northumbria University.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Paul Harvey (artist)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
