Michael Peppiatt graduated from Cambridge, where he edited
Cambridge Opinion
and wrote exhibition reviews for the
Observer
. In an international career spent between London, Paris and New York, Peppiatt has written regularly for
Le Monde
, the
New York Times
, the
Financial Times
,
Art News
and
Art International
magazine, which he re-launched as its new publisher and editor from Paris in 1985. He is the author of over twenty books including the definitive Bacon biography,
Francis Bacon: Anatomy of an Enigma
(revised edition 2008). In 2005 he was awarded a PhD by the University of Cambridge for his work in the field of twentieth-century art. Peppiatt has also curated numerous exhibitions worldwide, and he is currently at work on a major retrospective contrasting the achievements of the two modern artists he most admires: Alberto Giacometti and Francis Bacon.
