Duncan Campbell (born 1972)[1] is an Irish video artist, based in Glasgow.[2] He was the winner of the 2014 Turner Prize.[3]

Early life and education

Campbell was born in Dublin, one of the five children of Paddy and Veronica Campbell, entrepreneurs who founded a catering business, Campbell Catering, later sold to Aramark. Paddy Campbell is a noted sculptor, having been, he said, inspired when in his 50s by his son, and three of Duncan's siblings are also active in the arts, as a film producer, a screenwriter and an actress.[4]

Campbell grew up in Swords, north Dublin,[5] and studied at the private secondary Sutton Park School. He took a BA at the University of Ulster (1996) and a Masters in Fine Arts at the Glasgow School of Art (1998), remaining resident in Glasgow afterwards.[1][4]

Career

In 2008, he was awarded the Baloise Art Prize.[1] In 2013, Campbell was one of the three artists chosen to represent Scotland at the Venice Biennale.[2]

On 1 December 2014, it was announced that he had won the 2014 Turner Prize.[3] Campbell took the prize for his video work "It for Others" – a 50-minute video work that reflects on African art and includes a dance sequence inspired by Karl Marx.[2][5]

In 2018 Duncan Campbell was supported by the A. M. Qattan Foundation's A Flourishing Field project funded by the Swedish government.[6]

Personal life

As of 2014, Campbell, at 42, was a father of two.[4]
