Jamie Reid is an English artist and anarchist from Croydon, London. Reid grew up in a very politically active family and his powerful art prints explore issues such as nuclear weapons, racism and the criminal justice system. Reid is probably best known for his work with The Sex Pistols.
Reid studied at Croydon Art School, where he met Malcom McLaren, the future manager of the Sex Pistols. Reid’s décollage album and single covers for the band played a major role in defining the British punk movement’s aesthetic. Reid produced scandalous and famous works by defacing elements of pop culture and nationalist imagery, such as Cecil Beaton’s Silver Jubilee portrait of the Queen. As the editor of the seminal anarchist publication Suburban Press during the 1970s, Reid created mosaics by combining drawings, stickers, banners and posters, articulating contemporary issues and illustrating his message in a provocative way. He has participated in anti-war art exhibitions and campaigned on issues including poll tax, Clause 28 and the Criminal Justice Bill. Reid remains politically active today, producing works for zines and other media, and is currently represented by John Marchant Gallery in London. Reid’s art has been collected by Vivienne Westwood, Madonna and Angelina Jolie and can be found in The Museum of Modern Art in New York, the Victoria and Albert Museum in London, and the Tate Gallery in London, among others.
We love how Reid refuses to adhere to societal norms, instead spreading his punk message through his artwork. It was during his time with the punk rock band ‘The Sex Pistols’ that Reid produced his most scandalous and famous works. Reid uses his art to fight against far-right policies and different political and social movements, and is proud of his anarchist tendencies.

Reid’s collaboration on the Suburban Press (1971-1975) was an early coalescing of his political convictions and artistic intuition. His output after the implosion of the Sex Pistols extended his artistic drive through many genres - music, publishing and performance. After a long creative ...
