Magda Archer is London-based artist renowned for work that combines nostalgic paintings with raw, contemporary turns of phrase. Archer (b. 1964) studied at Ravensbourne College of Art, Chelsea School of Art, the Royal College of Art before co-founding the illustration duo Archer/Quinell, which rose to critical and commercial acclaim from 1988 to 1998. Since her first solo exhibition ‘Crazy Mad’ at The Cornerhouse, Manchester in 2011, Archer has shown across the UK and abroad including in ‘Peter Blake: About Collages’ at Tate Liverpool (2000) and her breakthrough exhibition #givemeeverythingandnothingbaby at HOME, Manchester and Chapter Arts, Cardiff (2015). Her renowned public posters for Flying Leaps immediately become recognisable landmarks in London’s urban landscape. On a global scale, Archer collaborates with major fashion designers, including her recent project Magda Archer x The Marc Jacobs and previous work with Commes des Garçons and Jenny Packham.
