A gallery in Brighton is hosting an exhibition celebrating legendary pop artist Sir Peter Blake.

Mr Blake created iconic album sleeves including Sgt Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band for The Beatles, The Who’s self-titled album Who, Oasis’ Stop the Clocks, as well as the 2012 Brit Award statuette.

Work by the artist from Dartford, Kent, including rare prints, is now on display at Enter Gallery, which coincides with his 92nd birthday.

A gallery spokesperson said the "godfather of pop art" was a "trailblazing figure in British contemporary art".

The exhibition includes work that illustrates his "wild and vibrant career" where he became "one of the most celebrated contemporary artists in British art history".

Enter Gallery said the exhibition will showcase Mr Blake’s diverse practices including collage classics, typography, found art, and painted portraiture.

A spokesperson said it will "provide the perfect opportunity to honour the talent and prolific output of one of Britain’s most beloved and famous artists".

Gallery founder Lawrence Alkin said he was "honoured" to host the exhibition.

He added: "It celebrates not only an iconic artist that has sparked the Pop Art movement, but someone I have enjoyed a close working relationship and friendship with over the last 20 years.”
