From The Hip, 1987-2016
The world lost Gord Downie today.
The Tragically Hip might be the most iconic piece of Canadian (pop) culture in the last 25 years. And for all intents purposes, that ended on August 20, 2016. Nothing has been as "Canadian" and nothing will likely be as "Canadian" again. It's a time, it's a place, it's a history.
This print explores the complete chronology of the Tragically Hip's output from 1987-2016. 170 line drawings about 170 songs, drawn over the course of 14 days (September 14-27, 2016), it depicts 14 albums worth of material from the Tragically Hip. (There's a lot of 14s in that last sentence.)
Two-colour screen print, edition of 100, retail $40. $10 from each print sold will go to Gord Downie Fund for Brain Cancer Research (https://donate.sunnybrook.ca/braincancerresearch).
