Pour Decisions is a playful tribute to life’s more enjoyable indulgences, showcasing The Connor Brothers’ signature blend of satire, nostalgia, and clever cultural commentary. The artwork is composed like a bookshelf of beloved vintage classics, each painted spine offering a familiar literary elegance with a sly wink. Produced as a silkscreen on archival paper (40x40”, edition of 125), it features rich textures and a warm palette of earthy browns, moss greens, and vivid reds. The result is a work that feels both timeless and distinctly contemporary — unmistakably The Connor Brothers.
The Connor Brothers are celebrated for their playful blend of storytelling, satire, and visual wit, creating artworks that feel both nostalgic and sharply contemporary. Originally introduced under a fictional narrative about twin brothers raised in an extremist cult, the duo used this invented biography to explore ideas of truth, identity, and the blurred boundaries between reality and fiction. Although their true identities were later revealed, the allure of their narrative-based approach remains central to their practice.
Their work frequently reimagines the aesthetic of vintage book covers and mid-century pulp art, pairing familiar imagery with clever, often provocative text. This contrast encourages viewers to pause—both to laugh and to reflect. Themes of love, desire, self-perception, and cultural expectation are all approached with a tone that is humorous without being dismissive.
At Trent Galleries, we are proud to showcase a selection of The Connor Brothers’ most compelling pieces. Their instantly recognisable style and meaningful dialogue with contemporary culture resonate strongly with collectors and new audiences alike. Beyond visual appeal, the duo’s continued involvement in activist initiatives—including mental health and refugee support—adds another layer of depth, making their art not just striking to look at, but important to consider.
