Born in East Anglia, Professor Brian Falconbridge PPRSS has spent his creative career as an artist producing sculpture and works on paper, alongside his professional life as an academic.

 

Although a sculptor in the 20th century Western tradition, Falconbridge's influences extend far and wide and often embrace diverse periods of European art history, such as 17th century Spanish still life painting and 20th century Russian Constructivism, as well as aspects of Japanese visual and literary culture.

​

Brian Falconbridge was awarded professorship whilst Head of Visual Arts at one of the most pre-eminent and influential art institutions in the country, Goldsmiths’ College, before becoming Dean at the then Sir John Cass Department of Art, Media & Design at London Metropolitan University.  He was President of the Royal Society of Sculptors from 2004 to 2009.
