FIONA RAE RA (b.1963)

Untitled, 1987’
oil on canas - 42x52ins

Fiona Rae was born in Hong Kong in 1963. She studied at Croydon College of Art, 1983-1984 and Goldsmith's College, London, 1984-1987. She participated in Freeze, the group show organised by Damien Hirst which helped launch a generation of artists who became known as 'YBAs' (Young British Artists). Rae was nominated for the Turner Prize in 1991 and elected to the Royal Academy in 2002
Rae's paintings contrast flat areas of colour with sign-making. This includes elements of text and pixilation. Throughout the 1990s her work became more structured & began to concentrate on particular motifs. Rae was appointed a Tate Trustee in 2005. In the same year she was also Master Artist in Residence at Atlantic Centre for the Arts, Florida, USA.
