Smash Hits was the biggest-ever exhibition of Sir Grayson Perry's work, covering his 40-year career. Perry went from taking pottery evening classes to winning the Turner Prize, presenting television programmes on Channel 4 , and writing acclaimed books. Pottery allowed him the opportunity to indulge his fascination with sex, Punk, and counterculture, amongst other things, in the most unlikely and polite of art forms. Today he is one of Britain's most celebrated artists and cultural figures.

Popular and provocative, Perry makes art that deals with difficult and complex ideas in an accessible and often funny way. He loves taking on big issues that are universally human: masculinity, sexuality, class, religion, politics, and more.

The exhibition Grayson Perry | Smash Hits was held at the Royal Scottish Academy from 22 July to 12 November 2023. To find out more: nationalgalleries.org/exhibition/grayson-perry-smash-hits
