Stephen Chambers RA: The Female Quixote

Stephen Chambers RA (b. 1960)
Stephen Chambers’  complex paintings and prints hover between abstract and figurative, minimal and decorative, and are intended to evoke curiosity in the viewer.

He has commented that his work ‘speaks of states of mind, behaviours and sensibilities’.   Besides his painting and printmaking, Chambers has also collaborated on three dance projects with the Royal Ballet: Sleeping with Audrey (1996), Room of Cooks (1997, 1999) and This House Will Burn (2001)

Artist in Residence at Kettle’s Yard, Cambridge in 1998 and elected a Royal Academician in 2005 Chambers has exhibited widely, holding more than 40 solo exhibitions.  His major portrait series entitled ‘The Court of Redonda’, first shown at the 2017 Venice Biennale, was subsequently exhibited at The Heong Gallery at Downing College, Cambridge, from where he received an Honorary Fellowship in 2016.

Collections include: Arts Council England; Deutsche Bank, London; Downing College, Cambridge; Government Art Collection, London; Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York; Pera Museum, Istanbul; V & A Museum, London. 

Stephen first started working with Kip Gresham in 2008 on The Kelly Gang series and in 2012 they collaborated to create Stephen’s major installation The Big Country shown at the Royal Academy in London.
