Inclusion of work by artists in these Stuckist Art Group shows does not imply support for The Stuckist Party, which is an entirely separate organization and a registered political party.

THE STUCKIST PARTY

The Stuckist Party was an officially registered a political party with the Electoral Commission. Stuckist Party candidate Charles Thomson stood in the General Election on 7 June in the South Islington and Finsbury constituency against Culture secretary Chris Smith and gained 108 votes, coincidentally reminiscent of Gallery 108, where the first Stuckist show was held in 1999. The Stuckist Party is now de-registered.
