Gauntlet Gallery — D*Face Print Index
Peace Gun (Silver)
Summary
"Peace Gun (Silver)" (2015) is a hand-pulled seven-colour screen print from Stolen Space, sized 42.5 x 100cm in a tight edition of 35, signed and stamped. Its tall, banner-like format and layered colour build reflect D*Face's ongoing engagement with weaponry recast as a symbol of contradiction rather than aggression.
Why It Matters
An edition of just 35 places this among D*Face's scarcer print releases. The seven-colour process and the elongated vertical composition make it a technically demanding print, and the "Peace Gun" motif distills the artist's habit of turning loaded American iconography into ironic commentary.
Collector Perspective
With only 35 impressions, availability is limited and condition sensitivity is high given the panoramic proportions, which demand careful flat storage and custom framing. The signed-and-stamped format aids authentication. The Silver colourway is one variant within the Peace Gun family, so collectors tracking completeness should note its relationship to other releases.
Historical Context
Released in 2015 through Stolen Space, the print belongs to a period when D*Face was consolidating his visual language of subverted Americana. The gun-as-peace-symbol conceit echoes pop-protest traditions, reworking the imagery of consumer and gun culture into something deliberately unsettling.

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.
