The pre-release of
‘Hendrix: Still Reigning, Still Dreaming’ by Fin DAC

The Red Bull Studios, Tooley Street, SE1
6:30pm – 10pm Thursday 16th September 2010

To coincide with the 40th anniversary of Jimi Hendrix’s death, Beautiful Crime will be pre-releasing urban artist Fin DAC’s highly anticipated sixteen colour, hand-finished screen print, ‘Hendrix: Still Reigning, Still Dreaming’ at a one night only pop-up exhibition and event at The Red Bull Studios.

The Artist

Fin DAC’s signature method of using the ‘spitting style’ technique in most of his work is testament to the fact that there is no avenue he won’t explore. Fin DAC who has sold his artwork on an international scale, has worked with the likes of Armani, The Morgan’s Hotel Group and has exhibited with Jamie Reid (the Sex Pistols album cover fame), Goldie and Jef Aerosol. Eddie Lock, art dealer and manager of urban art sensation, Goldie, commented, “Fin is making huge waves on the scene. The Hendrix piece is so vibrant, dynamic and intricate; it’s a truly stunning image.”

The Artwork

Fin DAC’s striking image of Hendrix possesses a bold and edgy quality, yet also offers a harmonising ambience, illuminated by the kaleidoscopic protrusion of colour. Seventy hand finished limited edition prints and nine ‘special edition’ prints with extra hand finishing and layers will be available on the night, before their official release on the Beautiful Crime website on the 18th September (www.beautifulcrime.com). There will also be four unique original 1/1 pieces, on wood, copper, metal and a newspaper collage canvas. These will cost £1,970, indicative of the year Hendrix died. The metal edition will be completed live on the night by Fin DAC himself.

The number of prints and their prices are all subtly linked to Hendrix. As he died in 1970, Beautiful Crime will be producing seventy limited edition hand-finished prints by Fin DAC, and as it was in the ninth month, there will be nine special edition prints. Reflective of the day and month that Hendrix passed, the seventy prints will be sold on the Beautiful Crime website for £189.

The Exhibition and Event

The four main artworks by Fin DAC, will take centre-stage at the exhibition along with the Hendrix screen print. The event will also see Stuee, from The Paddingtons, behind the decks, spinning his recently recorded tracks. The night will undoubtedly be an electric atmosphere, to honour the 40th anniversary of the death of one the greatest rock and roll legends the music industry has ever known.

Fins stuff is quality, and he's put alot of work into the print for sure. Good guy all round.

Interesting style he's got, and i agree with the above his Boy Soldier piece was stunning.

The dude in the cigarette costume is dope!

FinDac and this print was mention in the Sun (Entertainment page) yesterday! Nice exposure!

just got sent some pics from the show, and finally managed to see the prints today, looks awesome, the colours totally pop!!!

Yup I agree! Had the pleasure of helping out on his last exhibition and got to study a vid of him painting one of the Jimi Hendrix pieces. Very clever how he gets so many layers of depth out of a few very intricate stencils...

Finbar Dac & Ben Slow in Brick Lane recently :

have to say Fin Dac is really on his game these days... love the Beckett piece he did in Paris recently also

sneak peek on London stencil artist Fin DAC’s latest stencil artwork Blackjack, of his fabulous female stencil art series. For those who want to know more about the London-based stencil art master, Abid Khan recently published a nice portrait of Fin as part of his inspirational artists video series, filmed in Fin DAC’s very own studio!


It’s about beautifying something rather than destroy it. Cutting stencils is so hard edged and flat, I can’t get the depth, the fading that I want from it, but I still love cutting stencils..
