BLUR Out of Time - poster
2003

Poster

banksyqr 450x2906.jpg

Before a trip to Australia with fellow British artist Ben Eine in early 2003, Banksy was approached to create the artwork covers for Blur’s upcoming release of their Think Tank album. This included creating the art for the band’s singles released in April that year, including ‘Out of Time’.


This ‘bus stop’ lithograph poster, 99cm x 150cm, features playful imagery from Banksy, however a little edgy too. We see a wind-up couple, with a male character toasting the fact the female character is face down on the table. It appears she may have been knocked out or poisoned by the wine she has been drinking, as the glass lays smashed on the floor. Or maybe, she has just eventually wound down. This same image was used on the vinyl and CD single release, with the flower coloured in red or blue.


This poster advertises the UK single release date of 14.04.03.
