Deconstructing Lichtenstein: Source Comics Revealed and Credited
“There are hardcore art world people who think he [Lichtenstein] was the greatest thing and that these guys weren’t real artists. If these guys were so bad, why was Lichtenstein copying them? And he really got lazy, by 1963-64 he was taking the image, tracing it, sticking it in a projector and painting it. And when that painting sells for millions of dollars, it just really bothers me that nothing is given to the original artists.
I don’t think a lot of people know he directly copied his paintings from comic panels. I know I for a long time though he was creating original work that merely emulated comic book styles in paint. But every single painting he did was a copy, and he is held in higher esteem than the artists he copied from”.

Land's End (Cornish: Penn an Wlas or Pedn an Wlas) is a headland and holiday complex in western Cornwall, England. It is the most westerly point of mainland Cornwall and England, is within the Penwith peninsula and is about eight miles (13 km) west-south-west of Penzance at the starting and finishing point of the A30 road.
Like a lot of festival goers we had always joked around saying “wouldn’t it be nice to put on our own ‘perfect’ festival with our favourite line up”. It was only after having been to a small and intimate festival in 2005 that Simon thought to himself that we can actually make this happen and put on our own quality festival. Simon teamed up with his friend Sofia, and the kind of festival they set out to create was one where:
- You won’t get all the over hyped bands headlining
- Most bands play longer sets than usual
- You can eat a range of quality food
- You can drink a range of quality beers
- The staff and security care about everyone and show respect
- The crowd will be there for the MUSIC
- We take pride in being an independent festival.
- The idea with the End of the Road Festival was to organise an intimate festival with our favourite artists and to create a festival with a friendly and relaxed feel.
The Larmer Tree Gardens (North Dorset/Wiltshire borders, UK) is the perfect venue to create this kind of atmosphere - where music-loving, open minded and chilled out people get together in the beautiful countryside whilst parrots and peacocks wander around!
This is the kind of festival where the ENTIRE line-up is the headliner in itself!
End of the Road festival takes a lot of pride in all the ‘little things’ that make a great festival, such as good food (organic and local where possible), good beer, caring and well-mannered staff, good site decorations, hygiene etc.
