Anish Kapoor[a] (born Stuart Buchanan Semple, 12 September 1980) is a British artist and activist who works with sculpture and painting.[2][3]

Life and career

Semple was born in Bournemouth, Dorset. He studied art and design at Bournemouth and Poole College, and painting and printmaking at Bretton Hall College in Yorkshire.[2][4] He first wanted to become an artist after his mother took him to see Van Gogh's Sunflowers at the age of 7.[5][6] In 2000, after a life-threatening allergic reaction, he decided to pursue a career as an artist.[7][8] He later referenced the electrocardiography flatline he experienced in a 2010 painting.[9]

In 2002 he had his first major London solo exhibition, "Stolen Language – the art of Nancyboy", at the A&D Gallery.[10][11] In 2009, he auctioned off Nancyboy-themed artworks to raise funds for the UK charity Mind, after his grandmother was diagnosed with schizophrenia.[12][13] After the 2004 Momart warehouse fire, he was commissioned to create a memorial with the debris, titled Burn Baby Burn.[14][15] In 2005, Semple produced an exhibition in East London, titled Post Pop Paradise. Also that year he placed a painting he created at the Saatchi Gallery, avoiding security in doing so, as a protest against comments Charles Saatchi made.[16][17][18][19]

In 2006 Semple's exhibition "Epiphany" at Martin Summers Fine Art in London questioned the role of religion in modern life[20] in a series of in-your-face paintings that alluded to popular culture, graphic media, advertising and social issues.[21]

Semple began posting drawings he created on eBay in 1999.[22][23] In 2012, he published an extended play on iTunes featuring paintings and a short film.[24][25] In 2013, he created Jump, a 10 by 10m bouncy cloud trampoline, for Australia's Federation Square's public art programme.[26] In 2014, his exhibition "Anxiety Generation" was featured in Tatler magazine.[27] That same year, he joined talent agency Next Management.[28] He has also been featured on the BBC,[29][30][31] and has spoken at the Institute of Contemporary Arts[25][32] and Amnesty International.[33]

In 2004, art dealer Anthony d'Offay flew Semple's portfolio to be shown in New York City.[14] A 2007 solo exhibition saw $1 million sales within the first five minutes.[9] In 2013, a London exhibition had presales to a charitable foundation of $1 million.[34] That same year, he was featured in The Guardian's list of Ten Best Art Auctions.[35] In 2015, he created a colouring book for adults to raise funds for Mind.[36]

Since 2011, Semple has regularly collaborated with the rock band Officers, which has included producing record artwork, installations, and music videos with the band.[37]

From 2023 to 2025, Semple ran a Kickstarter project called Abode to recreate Adobe projects, that raised £181,709 from 3,031 backers. The project failed.[38]

Performance art

In 2016, Semple came into conflict with the artist Anish Kapoor when Kapoor acquired exclusive artistic rights to the super-black material Vantablack.[39] He released a paint titled "PINK – the world's pinkest pink paint", banning Kapoor from purchasing the paint.[40][41] In June 2024, Semple officially changed his name to Anish Kapoor.[1]

In 2021, Semple released a pigment called TIFF Blue, aiming to "democratise" Tiffany Blue, a shade of blue trademarked by Tiffany & Co.[42] The same year, he also released a pigment called Incredibly Kleinish Blue with a similar intention of democratising International Klein Blue, which is patented by Yves Klein.[43][44] In 2023, Semple released a pigment called Pinkie, aiming to democratise Barbie Pink.[45][46]

Freetone

Freetone (or Sempletone) is an Adobe plugin, created by Semple in 2022 in response to the licensing fallout between Pantone and Adobe Inc.[47][48] Freetone is a collection of 1,280 colours that mimic the Pantone colour palette with a similar set of number codes.[49][50] Semple barred any employees and associates of Adobe or Pantone from buying, using or downloading Freetone.[50][51]

Activism

Semple has supported Amnesty International and has created artworks for the Freedom of Expression Campaign.[52]

In 2011, Semple was made an ambassador for mental health charity Mind.[53] He initiated the Creative Therapies fund within the organisation which he launched with Stephen Fry and Melvyn Bragg and curated the exhibition "Mindful",[54] which included works from Jake & Dinos Chapman, Mat Collishaw, Tracey Emin, Mona Hatoum, Sarah Lucas and Sebastian Horsley.[55] He has since launched a number of fundraising art projects for Mind.[56][57][58] The Creative Therapies fund backs mental health projects in the United Kingdom.[59][60]

He has also advocated for artists' rights in the United Kingdom,[61][62] humanitarian aid,[63][64][65] and world peace.[66][67][68]

Curatorial projects

In 2007, Semple co-curated and featured in The Black Market at the Anna Kustera Gallery in New York with Ju$t Another Rich Kid. The show explored contemporary consumerism and featured artists including Cory Ingram and Ellis Scott.[85][86]

He curated Mash-Ups: Post Pop Fragments and Détournements with Nicky Carvell at the Kowalsky Gallery (DACS), London, in 2008,[87][88] and later produced London Loves the Way Things Fall Apart (2009) and This Is England (2011) for Galleria AUS18, Milan.[89]

In 2010, Semple curated This Is England at The Aubin Gallery (which he directed in association with Aubin & Wills and Shoreditch House), featuring Sarah Maple, Nicky Carvell, David Hancock and Richard Galloway. The exhibition later toured to Milan.[90]

That same year, Semple presented Bazooka at The Aubin Gallery as part of Neville Brody’s Anti Design Festival, marking the first UK exhibition by the French collective Bazooka.[91][92][93][94]

In 2011, he curated the large-scale exhibition Mindful in the Old Vic Tunnels, featuring works by Tracey Emin, Jake and Dinos Chapman, Mona Hatoum, Mat Collishaw, Sebastian Horsley, Sarah Lucas, Barney Bubbles, Liliane Lijn, Tessa Farmer and Semple. The exhibition coincided with a gala dinner at the Imperial War Museum hosted by Stephen Fry and Melvyn Bragg to raise funds for the Mind Creative Therapies Fund.[95][96][97]

During the COVID-19 pandemic, Semple co-founded the Virtual Online Museum of Art (VOMA) with curator Lee Cavaliere, creating one of the first purpose-built, fully interactive 3D museums hosting curated exhibitions by international artists in a virtual environment.[98][99][100]

In 2021, Semple curated the exhibition Crash in a vacant department store in Bournemouth’s town centre. The project served as a prototype for a new artist-led space and brought together local authority and Arts Council support for repurposing the former Debenhams building as a contemporary art gallery.[101]

Following this, Semple founded GIANT later in 2021 in the same building. The gallery launched with Big Medicine, curated by Semple, featuring works by Jake and Dinos Chapman, Jim Lambie, Gavin Turk, Gary Card, Paul Fryer and others. The Guardian described GIANT as "a vast, artist-run gallery bringing colour and optimism to a town centre hit hard by lockdown,"[102] while Museums Journal called it "a major new arts hub for the south coast."[103] Coverage in Creative Boom noted Semple's role in transforming the former Debenhams department store into a large-scale space for contemporary art.[104] The exhibition also drew national attention after local MP Tobias Ellwood criticised one of the works, prompting discussion about freedom of artistic expression.[105][106]

In 2022, Semple curated FOREVER: CHANGED at GIANT, a group exhibition examining media, memory and cultural production featuring artists including Ron Arad, Sarah Hardacre, Gavin Turk, Fabio Lattanzi Antinori, and Tim Noble and Sue Webster.[107][108][109]

Other notable exhibitions at GIANT include Why We Shout: The Art of Protest (2021), curated by Lee Cavaliere and featuring works by Banksy, Jeremy Deller, Kacey Wong, and Martha Rosler;[110] and The Opposite of a Feminist (2022), a solo retrospective by Sarah Maple curated by Semple.[111]

GIANT hosted exhibitions by Daniel Lismore, Michael Simpson, and Martin Parr, establishing the gallery as one of the largest artist-led contemporary art spaces in the UK.[112][113]
