The title of the show, “Brian Griffin: Capitalist Realism” is a reference to the portraiture Griffin did primarily during the Thatcher years, a nod to the Socialist Realism art movement that glorified Communist values. Griffin was inspired by the German and Russian painters from that era and created his own version of the paintings while making photographs of business leaders, politicians, and personalities. Although he’s unsure who came up with the term Capitalist Realism, Griffin likes it.
