Liam Gillick (born 1964, Aylesbury, Buckinghamshire) is a British artist who lives and works in New York City.[1] Gillick deploys multiple forms to make visible the aesthetics of the constructed world and examine the ideological control systems that have emerged along with globalization and neoliberalism. He utilizes materials that resemble everyday built environments, transforming them into minimalist abstractions that deliver commentaries on social constructs, while also exploring notions of modernism.[1]
