RZA #1 — A3 Fine Art Print by Gavin Evans, London 1997

Photographed in London, April 1997 for Time Out magazine. This fine art photography print by Gavin Evans presents a close-up studio portrait of RZA, born Robert Fitzgerald Diggs — both fists pressed to his temples, the frame tight and confrontational. De facto leader of Wu-Tang Clan and the architect of the group's sound, RZA constructed the dense sonic language that defined Enter the Wu-Tang (36 Chambers) (1993) and shaped East Coast hip-hop for a generation. This portrait was made during a group session with all six members in the year of Wu-Tang Forever (1997). A3 open edition giclée print on 308 gsm satin matte cotton rag, acid and lignin-free. Supplied unframed. Embossed with Gavin Evans' open edition stamp. Available from ThePrintRoom.Berlin
