Ralph Steadman is one of the most revered and provocative artists the British Isles have ever produced: an icon whose splattered-ink style instantly evokes the wild libertine spirit of rock’n’roll, Rolling Stone and Gonzo journalism.
In conversation with novelist, journalist and broadcaster Will Self, whose newspaper columns Ralph illustrated, he’ll explore the legend of his life to date: from being maced by Hunter S. Thompson in a Kentucky gentleman’s club to writing songs for Johnny Depp; and from the brutality of corporal punishment in a WWII grammar school to being banned for obscenity in the USA.
On the eve of the launch of his major retrospective book A Life in Ink, don’t miss this chance to dive into the gonzo life and times of one of our most important, influential and iconoclastic living artists.
