Hamish Fulton
About the artist...
Fulton was born in London in 1946. He studied at Hammersmith School
of Art, London, 1964-65, St Martin’s School of Art, London,
1966-68, and Royal College of Art, London, 1968-69.
Fulton first came to prominence in the late 1960s as one of a number
of artists - including Richard Long and Gilbert & George - who
were exploring new forms of sculpture and landscape art. A central
characteristic of their practice was a direct physical engagement
with landscape. Fulton's time as a student at St Martin's College
of Art and his journeys in South Dakota and Montana in 1969, encouraged
him to think that art could be 'how you view life', and not tied
necessarily to the production of objects. He began to make short
walks, and then to make photographic works about the experience
of walking
He now lives and works in Canterbury, Kent.
