Anish Kapoor (b. 1954, Mumbai, India) is one of the most influential sculptors of his generation, specializing in installation art and conceptual art. Kapoor has lived and worked in London, and first gained recognition in the 1980s for his large-scale geometric and biometric sculptures. In 2020, the artist participated in the second edition of Bangkok Art Biennale (BAB 2020) showcasing incredible installations at Temple of Dawn (Wat Arun), the Temple of the Reclining Buddha (Wat Pho) and The Parq.
