TRIPLE TROUBLE

Newport Street Gallery, in association with HENI, presents Triple Trouble, an exhibition uniting three disruptive artists: Shepard Fairey, Damien Hirst, and Invader, running until 29 March 2026.  This unprecedented show, curated by Connor Hirst, features a dynamic mix of individual works alongside bold new collaborations, many of which are revealed to the public for the very first time.

Spanning painting, sculpture, installation, and mosaic, the exhibition explores the intersections of contemporary art, street culture, and pop iconography. Fairey, Hirst, and Invader have combined forces to create a series of hybrid works that defy categorisation while amplifying their shared fascination with repetition, symbols, and cultural icons.

This ambitious exhibition, which spans all six gallery spaces at Newport Street Gallery, celebrates both the individuality of each artist and the synergy that emerges when their practices collide. Visitors will encounter familiar motifs – Fairey’s OBEY iconography, Hirst’s spots and cabinets, Invader’s space mosaics – reconfigured in provocative and playful ways that challenge the boundaries between fine art and street culture.

Show highlights include: collaborative Spin Paintings and spot artworks merging Hirst’s iconic techniques with Fairey’s politically charged graphics and Invader’s pixelated interventions; Rubik’s Cube mosaics reimagined in large-scale panels featuring subjects from science and music to counterculture figures presented alongside Fairey’s mixed media works; as well as tanks, pill cabinets, and lightboxes that blend Hirst’s clinical precision with the irreverence of Invader and Fairey’s street art. Also on show is a never-before-seen mural transforming Newport Street Gallery into a collision of fine art tradition and urban visual language.
