College of Further Education and received a BA in Fine Art from the  
Portsmouth Polytechnic. In the early 1980s Perry was a member of the  
Neo-Naturist group, and took part in performance and film works. He  
has continued to create work in a variety of media that includes  
embroidery and photography but is best known for his ceramic works.  
His work incorporates art history and the art world, consumer  
culture, scenarios of kinky sex and allusions to violence as well as  
images of himself, his family and his transvestite alter ego Claire.  
Grayson Perry won the Turner Prize in 2003. Grayson Perry will have a  
major solo exhibition at the 21st Century Museum of Contemporary Art  
Kanazawa, Japan in 2007.

The lecture will be moderated by Marjan Boot, conservator at the  
Stedelijk Museum Amsterdam and curator of the Retrospective Grayson  
Perry in 2002.
