Gauntlet Gallery — D*Face Print Index
More Punk Than You Punk (Fluorescent Pink)
Summary
More Punk Than You Punk (Fluorescent Pink) is a 2009 Stolen Space five-colour screen print on 410gsm Somerset Satin, with a 60 x 60 cm paper size and a roughly 19.75-inch square image. The edition numbers 50, and this example is an artist proof in the fluorescent pink colourway.
Why It Matters
The confrontational, punk-attitude title captures D*Face's rebellious streak and roots in subculture. The fluorescent pink colourway gives the work high-energy visual punch, while the artist proof status places this example outside the standard numbered run, a distinction collectors of proofs actively seek.
Collector Perspective
The main edition of 50 is moderately scarce, and an artist proof adds a further layer of desirability as a version held outside the numbered edition. Premium Somerset Satin 410gsm stock and the vivid fluorescent colourway make it visually striking. Collectors should note the AP designation, which typically sits apart from the numbered 50.
Historical Context
Punk imagery and attitude run throughout D*Face's practice, reflecting the DIY ethos that carried from music subculture into street art. Stolen Space's 2009 release on heavyweight Somerset Satin, with multiple colourways, shows the gallery packaging his rebellious themes into collectible, gallery-grade editions.

About the Artist
D*Face is the working name of Dean Stockton (born 1978, London), a British street artist and a leading figure in the UK urban-contemporary scene. Drawing on comic books, pop art, skate graphics, and consumer iconography, he developed a signature cast of characters — winged "D*Dog" motifs, skull-faced pin-ups, and subverted Americana — rendered in bold, Lichtenstein-indebted lines. From stickers and street work in the early 2000s, he built a substantial studio practice of paintings, sculpture, and signed prints, founded the StolenSpace Gallery in London, and has collaborated widely across music and fashion.
