Artwork Description:
The Connor Brothers’ original painting Show Me an Ex (Mauve), measuring 28" x 40", is a bold and provocative piece that fuses vintage glamour with sharp contemporary wit. Set against a rich mauve backdrop, the central figure—a sultry, red-haired femme fatale—commands attention as she gazes directly at the viewer, clutching a string of pearls between her teeth. The composition is crowned by the statement, "Show me an ex and I’ll show you a why", in stark white lettering, offering a wry commentary on relationships, regret, and hindsight.
This artwork is a powerful example of The Connor Brothers’ signature style—retro figurative imagery blended with clever, often cynical text. Their work consistently explores the tension between truth and fiction, reality and perception, inviting viewers to question the stories we tell ourselves and the cultural narratives we so readily accept. The piece's cinematic quality and vintage aesthetic are reminiscent of pulp fiction covers, lending it a nostalgic charm while delivering a distinctly modern message.
Emerging from their own myth of troubled twins escaping a cult, British artists Mike Snelle and James Golding—known as The Connor Brothers—have captivated the art world. Their art is celebrated globally for its satirical brilliance, depth, and social relevance, making them key voices in contemporary visual culture.
