‘Windsock Storyboard is based on my film Tete à Tête in which two mechanically operated windsocks are the main protagonists in a romantic drama set in a classic English landscape around Yorkshire Sculpture Park. Here, they turn their back on each other in a pivotal moment of confrontation.’ - Fiona Banner

School Prints revives a groundbreaking scheme set up in the 1940s to supply original, high-quality contemporary art to primary schools. Last year, six British artists – Martin Creed, Jeremy Deller, Anthea Hamilton, Helen Marten, Haroon Mirza and Rose Wylie – were invited to create limited edition prints that were gifted to participating Wakefield schools.

In 2019, Fiona Banner, Sir Peter Blake, Francis Upritchard and Richard Wentworth created a new series of limited edition prints as part of the scheme.

All profits raised by the series of limited edition prints will fund an engagement programme with the participating schools, which last year reached over 1,000 pupils in our district. The prints have kindly been donated by the artists.
