Michael Craig-Martin was born on the 28th of August 1941. He is a contemporary conceptual artist and painter. He has developed a distinctive style over the past 50 years through the compilation of a whole vocabulary of objects realised through a variety of media including painting, sculpture, drawing, printmaking and animations. Martins work has been very consistent throughout his years as an artist. I find Martin's work interesting as his subjects are object based void of an environment, similar to my own ideals of painting. Martin is fundamentally concerned with recording everyday things. "I like the idea that the painting is the object, that i've tried to make an identification between a single painting and a single object. there is nothing else. one is in place of the other."
