Christie’s roundel
Lot 205 Marc Bijl is a leading proponent of a hardcore aesthetic which is provocative and interventionist at the same time. A John Osborne-like angry young man, he belongs to the new generation of creative artists who have risen alongside the no-global movements of the late 1990's and early 2000's. Employing a Sex Pistols-style and admitting his debt to 70's counterculture, his imagery is involved with the illegal practices of social activism and with the strategies of urban guerrillas.
