Julian Opie

Julian Opie (born 1958) is a visual artist, and one of the New British Sculpture movement.

Opie’s graphic portrait style and his use of computer aided design has enabled him move between the fields of contemporary art and commercial design: in 2000, he was commissioned to design an album cover for British pop band Blur, and in 2006, he created an LED projection for U2’s Vertigo world tour.
