Royal Academy Of Arts

Richard Wilson RA is internationally celebrated for his interventions in architectural space which draw heavily for their inspiration from the worlds of engineering and construction. He is best known for his provoking and playful installations, such as 20:50, a sea of reflective sump oil which is permanently installed in the Saatchi Collection. Here, the artist discusses his celebrated career with Tim Marlow and some of his ideas behind the coordination of this year’s Summer Exhibition. Photo: Harry Borden
