Antony Micallef has joined the ranks of Britain’s art superstars. Fresh off his inclusion in Jake Chapman’s AKA Peace charity exhibition at the ICA in London is Antony’s latest print edition – an etching version of new painting A Study of Icarus. In the vein of Antony’s recent editions The Abduction of Persephone and Minotaur with Fauna the piece combines classical imagery with an ultra-modern sensitivity, all by the way of Antony’s much-lauded but always evolving draughtsmanship.
A complex, beguiling and downright beautiful piece A Study of Icarus fittingly pays testament to Antony’s own ambition and resonance.
