The Story
Size:44 x 44 in.
The Connor Brothers’ Is a Lie Still a Lie (39" x 39") is a striking and provocative artwork that blends vintage glamour with contemporary social commentary. The composition features a confident, elegantly dressed woman rendered in a retro, film-noir style, juxtaposed against bold text that challenges perceptions of truth and deception. The vivid red and cream background intensifies the dramatic aesthetic, while handwritten annotations and layered textures add depth to the narrative. This interplay of nostalgia and irony, combined with a rebellious undertone, exemplifies The Connor Brothers’ signature style—an exploration of fact, fiction, and the stories we tell ourselves.
The Connor Brothers, the artistic duo of Mike Snelle and James Golding, initially presented themselves as fictional twin brothers who had escaped a Californian cult. This fabricated backstory captivated the art world before they revealed their true identities, reinforcing their ongoing fascination with constructed realities. Their works, heavily influenced by pulp fiction and mid-century advertising, often feature witty, satirical, or deeply philosophical text paired with evocative imagery. Exhibited globally in cities such as London, New York, and Dubai, their art continues to challenge societal norms while supporting humanitarian causes, including refugee aid and mental health awareness.
