Michael Craig-Martin
Born in Ireland, the artist Michael Craig-Martin studied in America. On returning to the UK, he became a key figure in British conceptual art and an influential educator, linked in particular to the YBAs including Damien Hirst and Gary Hume.

He cites his 'rationalism' as the root of his practice.

Michael Craig-Martin
Bright, colorful and minimalist, Michael Craig-Martin's paintings and sculptures tackle the semiotics of everyday objects Michael Craig-Martin (born 1941) is an important figure in British Conceptual Art, and among the most influential artists and teachers of his generation. Since his rise to prominence in the late 1960s, he has moved between sculpture, installation, painting, drawing and print, creating works that fuse elements of Pop, Minimalism and Conceptual Art. His work transforms everyday objects--from buckets and ladders to sneakers, mobile phones and laptops--with bold colors and simple, uninflected lines. Renowned as an art educator, he has inspired generations of artists, most notably the Young British Artists (YBAs). This handsome book, the catalog of the largest exhibition of Craig-Martin's work to have been mounted in the UK, contains thought-provoking text by critics Michael Bracewell and Richard Cork and an illuminating conversation between the artist and the writer Carolina Grau.
