Anish Kapoor is a British Indian artist of the highest order, who has been described as "the greatest living sculptor of the day". His signature style, which is characterized by large-scale, highly polished stainless steel and polished white marble sculptures and dramatic light installations, has been called "starkly modern" and "slightly brutal". Kapoor's work is held in major private and public collections including those of the National Gallery of Art in Washington D.C., the Arts Council Collection in London, the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City, and The State Hermitage Museum in St. Petersburg.
Sculpture occupies the same space as your body.Anish Kapoor
I think I understand something about space. I think the job of a sculptor is spatial as much as it is to do with form.Anish Kapoor
The work itself has a complete circle of meaning and counterpoint. And without your involvement as a viewer, there is no story.Anish Kapoor
Artists don't make objects. Artists make mythologies.Anish Kapoor
