Triple Trouble – Damien Hirst, Shepard Fairey and Invader combine

Triple Trouble – a collaboration show between Damien Hirst, Shepard Fairey and Invader. Newport Street Gallery, London

Triple Trouble: Fairey, Hirst and Invader, 10 October 2025 to 29 March 2026 at the Newport Street Gallery. A collection of individual works and collaborations over two floors. Free to visit.

Curated by Connor Hirst, Triple Trouble sees the worlds of artist and collector Damien Hirst work together with street art pioneers Shepard Fairey and Invader. This isn’t your usual group show though. Whilst there are individual pieces, much of the work on display sees each artist collaborating with another and in some cases all three. Does this 1+1+1 equal 3 or does it create something greater (or lesser!). I think, despite my initial reservations, it works. Although I’d really much prefer to see a solo show by all of these in truth. Definitely worth your time all the same.
