This week, Steven is joined by Kavan, otherwise known as “the Richard Hambleton lawyer” and official representative of the Richard Hambleton archive, to discuss the legacy of one of the world’s greatest street artists, as well as the exciting developments currently taking place, including an upcoming Richard Hambleton experience, coming to London in 2021!
KEY TAKEAWAYS
Interest in Hambleton’s work is about go supernova. Part of the reason for his attraction is the story behind the man, so eloquently expressed in the documentary, ’Shadowman’.
So many people are put off by the highbrow image associated with art. The wonderful thing about Hambleton’s work, is that it is supremely accessible.
The magic of art is that it is an entertaining medium. People are shocked to discover that they are consistently learning through a process of consuming culture and beauty.
They key to involvement in art is to make someone feel that they are part of an artist’s journey. The more touch-points you have, the better it is. Simply purchasing a piece does not achieve this.
Seasoned collectors or new collectors always look for strong provenance of a piece. What you buy is a piece of history, even down to its place in the world at any given time.
BEST MOMENTS
‘It was kind of right-place, right-time scenario’
‘We’re really only just now at the tip of the iceberg in terms of getting Richard’s story out there’
’That lives with you. You know when you’ve seen a shadowman’
‘Your tastes and interest are always shaped by your education’
‘It all plays into the rich tapestry that makes up the provenance of a piece'

ABOUT THE HOST
The Steven Sulley Study is my take on success. My view is you should have multiple focuses to be a well-rounded individual. Success shouldn't be just one thing like money, for example, it should also consist of a healthy fit lifestyle and thriving relationships.
As a person who has made a success in life and also made huge cock-ups I feel I can offer suggestions and tips on how to become successful or at least start your pursuit. My 'Study' has taken resources from reading and education plus being around, my perception, of successful people and I, know a lot of successful people from all walks of life.
My 'Study' coming from my experiences in business, investing, sales (my core background), training, boxing and education has enabled me to become well rounded and successful and I will help you in these key areas too.
