DESCRIPTION
The painting from 1998 is based on a photograph of John Lennon, George Harrison, Ringo Starr and Paul McCartney by Dezo Hoffmann. It incorporates the Beatles logo imagined in the same manner as the logo of the BBC childrens television series 'The Teletubbies' which was popular with Furr's children at the time. The individual Beatles are reimagined in the colours of the four Teletubbies Tinky-Winky, La La, Dipsy and Po.
This painting became part of 'Neon Beatles' - a joint work with Chris Bracey, when the painting was put inside a neon frame and sold at the 'Liverpool Love' auction for Claire House, at the New Museum of Liverpool in 2012.
A limited edition print was produced from this painting in 2019 for the Art car Boot Fair.
