Anish Kapoor

Sir Anish Kapoor is a Turner Prize-winning British-Indian sculptor internationally recognized for his large-scale public sculptures, biomorphic forms, and pioneering use of materials such as highly polished stainless steel, wax, raw pigment, and Vantablack. Representing Great Britain at the 1990 Venice Biennale and creating landmark public works like Cloud Gate in Chicago, Kapoor explores themes of void, illusion, and perceptual space.
