Anish Kapoor British-Indian, 1954

Anish Kapoor is internationally recognized as one of today's leading contemporary artists. Renowned for sculptures that are adventures in form and engage public space, Kapoor maneuvers between vastly different scales, across numerous series of work. Best known for his Chicago Millennium Park installation, Cloud Gate, his work situates our inner world into the world around us, turned inside out, its inversions and protrusions summon up deep-felt metaphysical polarities of container and contained, being and non-being, that disrupt our quotidian reality.
