Biography[]

Harrison received his BA from Saint Martin's School of Art in 1984.[citation needed] Malcolm McLaren invited him to front the music projects The Sex Pistols and Masters of the Backside, with Chrissie Hynde and David Vanian, around this time.[1] His work was shown in the East End Gallery at the Whitechapel Gallery in 2004, and his first one-man exhibition was at the Victoria Miro Gallery in London in 2005.[2] A solo show, Green and Pleasant Land, was held at the Daniel Reich Gallery in New York in 2009.[3]

A book, David Harrison, was published in 2009 by Philip Wilson Publishers, with a foreword by Lucinda Lambton, an essay by Alistair Robinson, director of The Northern Gallery for Contemporary Art, and an interview with Peter Doig.
