Norman Dilworth (b. 1931, Wigan, UK – d. 2023, Lille, France) was a leading figure in abstract art, known for his geometric approach to sculpture. His work is characterised by systematic, constructivist and concrete elements, often employing mathematical rules and principles that ground his pieces in geometry, repetition and structured order. His sculptures explore how we perceive form and structure.
Born in Wigan in 1931, Dilworth studied at the Slade School of Art at University College London and then continued his studies in Paris. Over the years his work has been included in major collections including the Stedelijk Museum in Amsterdam, the Tate in London, and the Kröller-Müller Museum in Otterlo.
Major exhibitions include Pier + Ocean: Construction in the Art of the Seventies at the Hayward Gallery and the Kröller-Müller Museum, and a retrospective at the Musée Matisse in Le Cateau-Cambrésis. In 2019, he was honored with the Peter C. Ruppert Prize for Concrete Art.
