Stone Roses' John Squire Recreates Keira Knightley, David Beckham For Art Exhibition

Former Stone Roses member and artist John Squire has recreated Keira Knightley and David Beckham for a new exhibition.

John Squire: Celebrity, which opens in London next month ,depicts modern day celebrities as patterns and symbols.

“It's a brief respite from the endless bombardment of celebrity images,” Squire said.

“It asks: How often do we really need to see copies of complete strangers’ faces, and why do we collectively choose those particular people?”

Other celebrities in the exhibition include Lindsay Lohan, Joseph Frtizl and Harold Shipman.

John Squire: Celebrity will run from June 10-July 3 at the Idea Generation Gallery.
