St Pancras

Paul Catherall’s bold linocuts of architectural landmarks are instantly recognisable. Whether on Tube posters, book covers, greetings cards or gallery walls, his immaculately clean, sharp prints with their striking colour palette and graphic edge are particularly distinctive. Based in London, but raised in Coventry, Paul retains a huge love for the concrete icons of Brutalism and Modernism that framed his childhood. The subjects of his prints have included controversial buildings such as the Elephant and Castle Shopping Centre, the National Theatre and Telecom Tower, as well as celebrated landmarks including Battersea Power Station, Tate Modern and St Paul’s Cathedral. One of Transport for London’s most prolific poster artists of recent years, Paul studied Illustration at Leicester Polytechnic and began his career as a working illustrator, creating figurative acrylic paintings for clients ranging from Marston’s Brewery to the Sunday Times, Daily Telegraph and Harper Collins.

Paul Catherall was commissioned to produce three posters (originally a fourth for Edinburgh was envisaged) to celebrate the opening of newly revitalised St. Pancras Station (and the transfer of Eurostar services) and the partially rebuilt Kings Cross St Pancras Underground station. St. Pancras is arguably the the most striking of all London's main railway stations, and Paul was asked to produce a poster for the renovated station and two posters for Paris (one for Eiffel Tower and the other for Centre Pompidou) all extolling the ease of travelling to St. Pancras to use high speed train services.
