For the first time all of Marc Quinn's ‘blood head’ self portraits will be exhibited together. Each portrait is a documentation of the artist’s head, as it ages every five years, and so represents a portrait of the artist over a fifteen year period.
The four blood head sculptures will be included in a solo exhibition of the artist's work at Fondation Beyeler, Basel until 19 July.
