Rich Simmons Debut Collection

Castle Fine Art Nottingham are excited to announce the debut collection from internationally recognised artist Rich Simmons, available now. Seamlessly blending pop art and street art, Simmons creates striking works that challenge expectations while celebrating freedom, equality and self-expression.

Inspired by his love of 1950s comic books, Simmons reimagines two of the genre's most iconic heroes locked in a passionate embrace. His bold depictions of Batman and Superman have become instantly recognisable, provoking conversations about identity, sexuality, and the courage to live authentically. By reframing these characters, Simmons emphasises how their status as heroes transcends labels, encouraging viewers to see people for their actions and choices above all else.

With bold black outlines, vibrant tones of yellow, red, blue and pink, and meticulous stencil work, Simmons transforms the rebellious energy of graffiti into fine art. From large-scale murals to precision-crafted canvases, each piece combines layers of paint with hand-cut stencils, Fibonacci spirals and art-historical references. The result is a body of work that is as thought-provoking as it is visually arresting.

We look forward to welcoming you to Castle Fine Art, Nottingham, where you can be among the first to discover Rich Simmons' latest originals and limited editions from 'Between the Capes' available now.
