▲ Sir Grayson Perry RA (British, b.1960) 'Saint Diana (Let them Eat

mixed media sculpture, 22cm wide, 20cm deep, 38cm high, Exhibited: James Birch Fine Art, King's Road, London, 'Grayson Perry Ceramics and Sculpture' (Grayson's debut solo exhibition), 14 December 1984 - 20 January 1985; The Holburne Museum, Bath, 'Grayson Perry: The Pre-Therapy Years', 24 January 2020 - 3 January 2021, touring to York Art Gallery, 28 May 2021 - 5 September 2022 and the Sainsbury Centre, Norwich, 19 September 2021 - 30 January 2022. Literature: Catrin Jones (ed.) and Chris Stephens (ed.), 'Grayson Perry: The Pre-Therapy Years', published by Thames and Hudson Ltd., 2020, ill. p. 72. 'This work was in Grayson's first show at my King's Road gallery in 1984. This exhibition was a really interesting mix of Grayson’s works, including sculptures and ceramics. It was nearly a sell-out show. This work was very popular at the exhibition and was bought. I later bought it from auction and was happy to have it back in my care.' - James Birch 'I was at once fascinated and repulsed by the cult of Princess Diana that flowered in the years after her marriage to Prince Charles. This reliquary is crafted from detritus scavenged from round our squat and pottery sherds found mudlarking on the Thames foreshore. It is in the form of a miniature coronation chair…My miniature throne come commode houses a sacred turd. Perhaps inspired by Piero Manzoni’s 'Artist’s Shit' (1961), I had tried to encase one of my own faeces in a block of resin, which ended in a smelly mess, so I made a fake one out of ceramic.' - Grayson Perry ('Grayson Perry: The Pre-Therapy Years', edited by Catrin Jones and Chris Stephens, published by Thames and Hudson Ltd., London, on the occasion of the exhibition at the Holburne Museum, Bath, 2020). 19 September 2021 - 30 January 2022.
