______________

Prefab77, whose real name is Peter Manning, is a British contemporary street and fine artist renowned for his bold, graphic style that blends urban decay with high fashion aesthetics. Working out of Newcastle for over 20 years, his art is a fusion of experiences from North England, California, and New York, reflecting a narrative of modern popular culture, money, fashion, and politics.
Manning’s artistic journey began in an unconventional setting: as a printmaker and designer in Her Majesty's British Army. This early experience in design and printmaking laid the foundation for his meticulous technique. His career then led him to the fashion and marketing industries, including a significant period living and working in New York City's Lower East Side during the 1990s. The raw, layered street culture of Nolita, clashing with emerging gentrification and luxury brands, profoundly influenced his unique aesthetic, characterized by a mix of acrylic, spray paint, wheatpaste, and varnish.
Prefab77's work is instantly recognizable for its hard edged, stripped down compositions, often featuring allegorical female portraits or "Gangs, Goddesses and Groupies" alongside traditional iconography and anti-establishment motifs. His murals, such as "Net Worth" in North Shields, often incorporate local heritage and political commentary, using a blend of photo-realism and pop art elements.
He has exhibited globally in galleries in Detroit, San Francisco, and Ibiza, and has been commissioned by major brands including Nike, Converse, GAP, and Keds. His work has also graced the cover of the New York Dolls' final studio album, Dancing Backward in High Heels.

Prefab77 is the alias of Peter Manning, a British artist who fuses military precision with street energy. Born in the north of England and trained as a printmaker for the British Army, he learned discipline and technique that still shape his fast, hard edged style. A move to New York in the 1990s placed him on Elizabeth Street, where torn posters, luxury boutiques and fresh graffiti collided outside his door. That visual mix became his palette. Returning to Newcastle, he began creating large allegorical portraits that weave money, music, politics and fashion into glowing mosaics of paint, spray, wheatpaste and varnish.

His female faces stare out like modern saints, framed by gilded dollars, roses and fractured headlines. The work is glamorous yet confrontational, celebrating consumer icons while questioning who owns the streets. Commissions followed from Nike, Converse and the New York Dolls, yet Manning still climbs walls at dawn, armed with tiles and adhesive, turning blank brick into shimmering commentaries on power and desire. Each piece is cut, painted and placed by hand, building a luxurious surface that feels both devotional and subversive. Recent murals in North Shields tackle Brexit and local pride, proving his gaze remains fixed on the tension between heritage and change. For Prefab77, every wall is a chance to craft a modern fable, beautiful enough to stop traffic and sharp enough to leave a lasting impression on the passerby who dares to look closer.
