Gerald Laing: 1936 - 2011

Gerald Laing's career has taken him from International success in the avantgarde world of 1960s pop art, throught minimalist sculpture, followed by representational sculpture and now back full circle to his pop art roots. Laing has been a key 20th century icon maker in a career that has always been a unique looking glass to wider social changes. He is proving to be an even more acute observer in the 21st century with his timely depictions of Kate Moss, Amy Winehouse and the Gulf War.
