2.Anthony Caro
Anthony Caro is a British abstract sculptor whose work is characterised by the use of 'off-the-shelf' industrial objects in combination with metal. In the early 1960s he began working with colourful abstract steel structures placed directly on the floor. (Spence , 2015) In addition to steel, he also produced works in bronze, lead, silver, stoneware and wood, as well as on paper. (Galerie Max Hetzler, 2013) Caro redefines what sculpture is and what it could be. His painted steel abstract structures subverted the traditional concepts of material, method, surface, scale and space.
Artist Research：
Ana Montiel
Ana Montiel is a Spanish artist. She concentrates mainly on the creation of colour block paintings and sculptures. The complex processes and her focus on detail are further emphasized by the overlapping of colours, featuring more linear shapes and expressed in size and form. Her paintings focus on the pursuit of conscious identity. The colourful objects on her paintings seem to be in movement, bringing the audience into a semi-conscious mood. Enjoying her drawings is like opening the eyes after a nap on the beach.

It was located in the heart of Knightsbridge, which was London's richest district. However, the department store experienced a tragedy when it was burnt down in December 1883. When Harrods reopened, it contained the most diverse range of home-grown brands, Harrods' own brands and international luxury brands, as well as owning at least 300 departments, 20 restaurants, a bank and a beauty salon.

Its magnificent exterior architecture and the sophisticated ancient Egyptian palace-style décor of many areas are designed wi
