Julian Opie

Julian Opie is a Contemporary British artist whose simple, graphic figurative portraits, paintings, and videos render a pared-back perspective on contemporary life.

Each artwork by Julian Opie is distinct, often featuring boldly-outlined silhouettes, which take inspiration from Japanese woodblock prints, Egyptian hieroglyphics, and traffic signs.


Opie studied at Goldsmiths’ College and has exhibited in London, Tokyo, New York, Los Angeles, Berlin, Seoul, and now, Amsterdam and Barcelona at Moco Museum. Discover the iconic style of portraiture that is none other than Julian Opie.
