Radical Making Pursuit of Form
Paris
Marc Quinn
Quinn’s work includes sculpture, installation, and painting. Quinn explores 'what it is to be human in the world today' through subjects including the body, genetics, identity, environment, and the media. His work has used materials that vary widely, from blood, bread and flowers, to marble and stainless steel.
Quinn makes art about what it is to be a person living in the world – whether it concerns Man’s relationship with nature and how that is mediated by human desire; or what identity and beauty mean and why people are compelled to transform theirs; or representing current, social history in his work. His work also connects frequently and meaningfully with art history, from Modern masters right back to antiquity. His work is exhibited in many major groups and solo exhibitions internationally and is a great artistic force
