Painting Modern Japan, with artist Carl Randall

In this talk for the Japan Society at Swedenborg Hall on 4 July 2022, award winning artist Carl Randall takes us back to his time spent in Japan, sharing with us his experiences and what inspired him to take this journey, and the portraits that were created as a result, as well as a glimpse of works created since returning to the UK. Carl Randall is a British figurative painter whose work is based on images of modern Japan and London. A graduate of The Slade School of Fine Art, The Royal Drawing School London, and Tokyo University of Arts Japan, he is the winner of the BP Travel Award at The National Portrait Gallery, The Sunday Times Watercolour Competition, The Nomura Art Prize Japan, as well as several other awards. He has had several solo exhibitions in London and Japan, with group exhibitions at The National Portrait Gallery, The Royal Academy of Arts, The Jerwood Gallery, Flowers Gallery, The Mall Galleries, Christies New York & London, Tokyo Art Award, Tokyo Metropolitan Museum of Arts; as well as participating in art fairs in Switzerland,Turkey, Japan and Taiwan. His paintings have been featured on the BBC World Service and CNN, and can be found in the collections of University College London Art Museum, Tokyo Geidai Art Museum Japan, and The Royal Collection (being commissioned by HRH Prince of Wales), as well as in private collections in the UK, Japan, Australia and USA. In 2014, Foundation Carmignac in Paris purchased his large canvas 'Tokyo Portrait' for their collection, joining works by Andy Warhol, Roy Lichtenstein, Jean-Michel Basquiat and Gerhard Richter. His fine art prints are in the collection of Cambridge University, London Zoo, the National Poetry Library, and Channel 4 News Studios. He was invited to be artist in residence in Hiroshima City Japan to paint portraits of survivors of the Atomic Bomb, and at the Grand Prix Formula 1 Races in Japan. His BP Travel Award display of seventeen Japan paintings at the National Portrait Gallery in 2013 was accompanied by 'Japan Portraits' - a catalogue illustrating paintings and drawings made during his 10 years living in Tokyo. The exhibition then travelled to Aberdeen Art Gallery Scotland; Wolverhampton Art Gallery England; and The Tokaido Hiroshige Museum, Shizuoka Japan. He is currently based in London.
