ABOUT THE ARTIST
Anish Kapoor is an influential British sculptor and contemporary artist of Indian origin. He was born on March 12, 1954 in Bombay, India, into a family of Indian and Iraqi descent. Throughout his career, Kapoor has made a significant mark on the contemporary art world with his innovative and provocative work, which explores themes of form, color, space and perception.
Kapoor moved to London in the 1970s to study at the prestigious Hornsey College of Art and later at the Chelsea School of Art Design. His initial artistic training was influenced by minimalism and conceptual art, but he soon developed his unique and distinctive style.
One of the most notable characteristics of Kapoor's work is his focus on sculpture. He often works with unusual and challenging materials, such as wax, stone, steel and plaster, to create sculptures that challenge traditional notions of form and space. His works often take on organic and geometric forms, and are characterized by their highly polished finish and use of color, especially red and black.
In the 1980s, Kapoor became famous for his series of shell-shaped sculptures known as "Queen Sculptures" and "Nothing Sculptures." These works are characterized by their concave conical shape and glossy finish. Kapoor is also known for his sculptures using the technique of "Vantablack," a material developed by scientists that is one of the darkest blacks known, which creates the illusion of a black hole in his works.
In addition to his work in sculpture, Kapoor has dabbled in installation and public art. His monumental pieces have been exhibited in landmarks around the world, such as Chicago's Millennium Park and the ArcelorMittal Orbit Tower in London's Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park.
Anish Kapoor has received numerous awards and honors throughout his career, including the prestigious Turner Prize in 1991 and the Royal Academy of Arts Gold Medal in London in 2013. In addition, in 2014, he was knighted and is now known as Sir Anish Kapoor.
His work has become part of the canon of contemporary art and has influenced generations of artists. With his innovative use of materials and his focus on exploring perception and space, Anish Kapoor has left an enduring mark on the contemporary art world and remains an influential figure on the international art scene.

Anish Kapoor
Born in India, Anish Kapoor has lived in England since the 1970s. Beginning in 1973, he studied in London at the Hornsey College of Art before going on to the Chelsea School of Art. After spending some time in India in 1979, Kapoor gained recognition on the international scene during the early 1980s.
"The void is not silent. I have always thought of it more and more as a transitional space, an in-between space,” Kapoor has said.
Since the early 1980s, Kapoor has not only produced some of the most innovative work in contemporary sculpture but has also done much to re-establish certain original sculpture forms. Although he is influenced by his cultural origins, the artist continues to incorporate new ideas into his work.
Born out of spiritual reflection, Kapoor's pieces strive to give form to the vital and opposing forces, as in his series of “Shadow Prints” — full/empty, material/spiritual, light/darkness, visible/invisible, aware/unaware, male/female, land/sea. Through a visual vocabulary that incorporates color pigments in particular as well as glass fiber and stainless steel, the artist has developed an ambitious body of work in sculpture and installation that at times approaches design and architecture.
Often displayed in public spaces, Kapoor’s sculptures are striking for their apparent simplicity. Yet his work is hard to overlook and has a hold on its audiences.

He printed a small detail transparency of Mornings with Judd onto the existing plate, alongside it's larger self, and broke through to a new photo-resist approach, which Milton described as "piquant and irresistible," in his essays appearing in Robert Flynn...Category
