Richard Phillips (b. 1962, Marblehead, Massachusetts) is known for his provocative, hyperrealist works that explore the intersections of celebrity, politics, power, and desire. By applying classical painting techniques to contemporary pop culture subjects, he subverts the seductive language of advertising and mass media. His work reframes familiar imagery to expose the psychological and ideological weight beneath the surface.
Phillips has held solo exhibitions at Kunsthalle Zürich, Kunstverein Hamburg, Le Consortium in Dijon, the Institute of Modern Art in Brisbane, and Dallas Contemporary. His films Lindsay Lohan and Sasha Grey premiered at the 54th Venice Biennale and have been shown at major international institutions. His work is included in the permanent collections of the Museum of Modern Art, the Whitney Museum of American Art, the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, the Modern Art Museum of Fort Worth, and Tate Modern. Phillips lives and works in New York City.
