Alphabet by Michael Craig-Martin at The Concourse in July
 dlr Arts and Hayward Touring are delighted to announce that in July 2010 the Concourse will host an exhibition by artist Michael Craig-Martin.
Born in Dublin, Michael Craig-Martin is one of the most influential artists of recent decades. He was a key figure for the YBA (Young British Artists) generation of artists, whom he taught in his capacity as tutor at Goldsmiths College of Art. In his recent series, Alphabet, he has produced 26 screen-prints in which the letters of the alphabet, are overlaid with everyday objects such as a book, a glass of water or an umbrella. Created in his signature style, these visually arresting images are set against a background of vivid monochrome colours. Instead of a direct 'A is for Apple', 'B is for Ball', the relationship between the letter and image depicted is not instantly obvious and requires some guess work.
