“Crisis” Screen Print by Richey Beckett

“Crisis” Screen Print by Richey Beckett

Check out this beautiful new screen print by Richey Beckett entitled “Crisis”! The artwork was originally created to celebrate the tenth anniversary of AlexisOnFire’s acclaimed album CRISIS. Thematically, the record is inspired by the events of the Great Lakes Blizzard that struck the band’s homeland of Southern Ontario in 1977. For the album’s tenth anniversary art, Richey wanted to show the effects that the blizzard had on wildlife - as species were driven out of their habitats and challenged to find food. Although several species of swan live on Lake Erie, it’s extremely rare to find a black one. What a gorgeous image, don’t you think!?!

“Crisis” by Richey Beckett is a 12”x24” signed and numbered screen print on 100lb Speckletone Madero Beach French Paper. AlexisOnFire sold an unsigned version of this print, which was limited to 200 pieces and is now sold out, but this artist set are the only signed copies of the print available. The signed artist set is limited to just 75 pieces and is available now at Beckett’s online store for £50.
