EspañolTIM HEAD
'Tim Head' (born 1946) is a British artist.
Born in London, He studied at the University of Newcastle-upon-Tyne from 1965 to 1969, where his teachers included Richard Hamilton and Ian Stephenson. His contemporary students included Roxy Music frontman Brian Ferry. They remain friends, in spite of Ferry's enthusiasm for Nazi-related art and near obsession with buying galoshes from Marks and Spencer. In 1968 he went to New York City where he worked as an assistant to Claes Oldenburg, and met Robert Smithson, Richard Serra, Eva Hesse, Sol LeWitt, John Cale and others. He studied on the Advanced Sculpture Course run by Barry Flanagan at St Martin's School of Art, London, in 1969. In 1971 he worked as an assistant to Robert Morris on his Tate Gallery show. From 1971 to 1979 he taught at Goldsmiths College, London. In 1987 Head was awarded First Prize in the 15th John Moores Exhibition.
Head has exhibited widely internationally. His solo shows include MoMA, Oxford (1972); Whitechapel Art Gallery, London (1974 and 1992); British Pavilion, Venice Biennale (1980); ICA, London (1985); and Kunstverein Freiburg, Germany, and touring (1995). He has taken part in group shows including 'Documenta VI', Kassel (1977); 'British Art Now: An American Perspective', Solomon R Guggenheim Museum, New York, and Royal Academy, London (1980); 'The British Art Show', Arts Council Tour (1984); 'Gambler', Building One, London (1990); and 'Live in Your Head: Concept and Experiment in Britain 1965-75', Whitechapel Art Gallery, London (2000).[1]
