Andrew Malone

Andrew Malone studied sculpture at Central St Martins, London, Canterbury College of Art, and Hochschule der Künste in Berlin and lives and works in Whitstable, Kent. He exhibits in the UK with galleries in Kent, London and Norfolk, as well as in America and Australia.

He has shown work at the London Art Book Fair, the ICA, V&A, Whitechapel Gallery, as well as with Handmade and Bound, Book Art Bookshop in London, Boekie Woekie in Amsterdam, Marc Jacobs Bookmarc, Doverodde Book Arts Festival in Denmark, Turner Contemporary in Margate, Whitstable Biennale, Sheffield International Artist’s Book Prize and Lutyens and Rubinstein in London.

He has work in the Tate Britain collection and in several Artists Book collections. Commissions include a book cover for John Berger’s novel Ein Geschenk für Rosa.

He taught Sculpture at Wimbledon School of Art and in Florence, and has delivered masterclasses at The Royal Academy in London. He was Programme Director and Associate Head of School at The University for the Creative Arts for nearly thirty years.

His hand-cut paper constructions, which turn a series of two-dimensional images into freestanding entities that can be read as flip-books or static objects, combine his love for the natural world and a nostalgia for the ephemera of his youth: matchboxes, postage stamps, Observer’s books, cigarette cards and I-Spy books.
