| Tony Rickaby | |
Born in London 1944. Early in my career I worked with the Archigram architecture group and the Light/Sound Workshop group. I have shown my work, often dealing with my experiences of London and issues of politics and popular culture, throughout Europe and the US. |
|
| About the Artist | |
I use and combine many different forms - paintings, constructions, installations, text pieces and digital animation. Usually these have been gallery-based, but I have also shown in other formats such as shop windows, architectural spaces and in printed and digital magazines. |
