Anthony Green Luton, England, b. 1939

Green studied at Slade School of Fine Art of University College, London; he received a French Government scholarship to Paris and a then a Harkness Fellowship to the USA, he has also been elected Fellow of University College, London, and is currently Trustee of the Royal Academy, of which he is Member since 1971.
His work chronicles his family and surroundings; most of it is painted on irregular-shaped supports and on free-standing structures. This is because the pictures in his mind have no edges and do not therefore have to be contained within a rectangular form.
