In 1995, his work was included in the YBA artists’ showcase ‘Brilliant!’, after which he represented Britain at the Bienal de São Paulo in 1996 and Venice Biennale in 1999. His success reached new heights when he was nominated for the Turner Prize in 1996, consequently his work going onto be part of Charles Saatchi’s touring collection at the Royal Academy in London. The Whitechapel Gallery showed Hume’s work as his oneperson show in 1999, and he was elected to the Royal Accademy in 2001. International interest in Hume’s skills took him to Hannover and Austria in 2004, where his Monographic works gathered spotlight in shows at the Kestnergesellschaft and Kunsthaus Bregenz respectively.

“One of the important things that I think Paul and I have in common is we both have a sense of putting something back into the system that gave so much to us, and I think we share that view. I would say that the print is kind of a reflection of that association where we’re putting something back into the world.” - Sir Michael Craig-Martin
