World Tour: Nice, Promenade, 2010
World Tour: Nice-Promenade is a signed, limited edition 24 colour silkscreen print with glosses and glazes by British pop art legend Sir Peter Blake. Available individually or as part of the set of ten World Tour images.
‘World Tour: Nice-Promenade’ reflects the desire 'to see and be seen' at fashionable and glamourous locations such as Cannes along the French Riviera. To promenade is to stroll along the seafront taking in the breeze and the views. Blake takes this practice to a ridiculous level, creating a crowd that could be representative of the hurley-burley of society at the height of the season, or the melee of the film festival. His inclusion of a trio of clowns in the foreground of the image may hint at the artist's own feelings towards the pretensions of this kind of society. Blake highlights a British soldier holding the union flag, perhaps making an ironic aside about the behaviour of 'brits abroad'.
