Michael Craig-Martin

Michael Craig-Martin, Royal Academy of Arts

A key figure in British art, Michael Craig-Martin is one of the most influential artists and teachers of his generation.

Since coming to prominence in the late 1960s he has moved between sculpture, installation, painting, drawing, prints and digital works, creating a body of work that has fused elements from pop, minimalism and conceptual art.

Craig-Martin will transform the Main Galleries with work from across his career. See his early experimental sculpture and his landmark conceptual work An Oak Tree alongside the large-scale, vivid colour paintings of everyday objects – from corkscrews and umbrellas to laptops and smartphones.

Featuring a dramatic site-specific installation, a group of monumental sculptures and new immersive digital work by the artist, this will be the largest and most comprehensive exhibition of Craig-Martin’s work ever held in the UK.
