Opake curated special edition

Leading artist Opake has curated a special edition of the Big Issue which is a ‘celebration of the outsider’.

Contributors include the Nigerian artist Slawn, who has collaborated with Opake to create an exclusive print, free with the magazine, which brings together their distinct signature styles for the first time and is sure to be a highly collectable item – but you can skip the auction houses by getting it from your local vendor this week!

Fellow cartoonist-artist Will Blood, self-taught star Charlotte Rose and the graffiti artist FATSO have also given unprecedented behind-the-scenes access to Big Issue, inviting them into their studios to see their extensive back catalogue of work.

Opake’s takeover also profiles some of the art world’s most exciting rising stars, including Soldier and Suto.

Pick up this masterpiece from your local Big Issue seller before they sell out!
