Anish Kapoor

Untitled 1, from 12 Etchings

2007

Anish Kapoor emerged as one of a highly inventive generation of British sculptors during the 1980s, and since then has created a body of work that has combined a modernist sense of pure materiality with a fascination for the manipulation of form and the perception of space. Kapoor's sculptures have highly reflective surfaces of polished stainless steel, often with brilliant enamel coatings. In his printed works, subtle gradations of color create the illusion of immersive depth and dimensionality so that they appear illuminated from within.
