Michael Craig-Martin Baseball Cap, 2019 Silkscreen 60 × 60cm Edition of 20 £1440 (ICA Red Members £1080) Preeminent conceptual artist Michael Craig-Martin is renowned for analysing the dynamic between objects, images and language. Early in his career, Craig-Martin worked with sculpture and installation to address these concerns, creating works that knowingly referenced American minimalism. In the 1990s, around the time of his influential tenure as a tutor at Goldsmiths (where he is now Emeritus Professor of Fine Art), Craig-Martin shifted his attention to painting, developing his instantly recognisable style. Created for the Institute of Contemporary Arts, Baseball Cap is drafted in Craig-Martin's trademark bold outlines which delineate vivid planes of flat, vibrant colour. Through this precise compositional technique and decisive layering of colour, Craig-Martin continues to navigate the tensions between object, representation and language.
