Doig was born in Edinburgh, Scotland in 1959. In 1962 he moved with his family to Trinidad, and then to Canada in 1966. In 1979-80 Doig moved to London to attend the Wimbledon School of Art (1979-80) and Saint Martin’s School of Art (1980 – 83). He went on to study at the Chelsea School of Art (1989 – 90) where he received his MA.
In 1990, Doig was awarded the Whitechapel Artist Prize, earning him his first solo exhibition at the Whitechapel Art Gallery in 1991. Other seminal exhibitions have included his inclusion at the 2005 The Triumph of Painting exhibition at the Saatchi Gallery, London, a solo exhibition at the Tate Britain (2008) which went on to tour Musée d’Art Moderne de la Ville de Paris and Schirn Kunsthalle, Frankfurt. Doig has had major solo exhibitions at Dallas Museum of Art, Pinakothek der Moderne in Munich, Bonnefanten Museum in Maastricht and the Scottish National Gallery in Edinburgh. The Montreal Museum of Fine Arts presented a solo exhibition for Doig in 2014; this was his first major exhibition in North America. A retrospective opened at Foundation Beyeler, Basel, in the same year, travelling on in 2015 to Louisiana Museum of Modern Art in Denmark. In 2015, an exhibition of recent works opened in Venice, Italy, coinciding with the Venice Biennale. In 2019, Micheal Werner Gallery hosted an exhibition of his new work which was received with great success.

Finding the Right Figurative-prints-works-on-paper for You
Bring energy and an array of welcome colors and textures into your space by decorating with figurative fine-art prints and works on paper.
Figurative art stands in contrast to abstract art, which is more expressive than representational. The oldest-known work of figurative art is a figurative painting — specifically, a rock painting of an animal made over 40,000 years ago in Borneo. This remnant of a remote past has long faded, but its depiction of a cattle-like creature in elegant ocher markings endures.
Since then, figurative art has evolved significantly as it continues to represent the world, including a breadth of works on paper, including printmaking. This includes woodcuts, which are a type of relief print with perennial popularity among collectors. The artist carves into a block and applies ink to the raised surface, which is then pressed onto paper. There are also planographic prints, which use metal plates, stones or other flat surfaces as their base. The artist will often draw on the surface with grease crayon and then apply ink to those markings. Lithographs are a common version of planographic prints.
Figurative art printmaking was especially popular during the height of the Pop art movement, and this kind of work can be seen in artist Andy Warhol’s extensive use of photographic silkscreen printing. Everyday objects, logos and scenes were given a unique twist, whether in the style of a comic strip or in the use of neon colors.
