(1969 –) Peter Newman was born in London in 1969 and attended Goldsmith's College from 1987 to 1990. His practice often addresses the human relationship with astronomy and the sky. One photographic series recorded aerial panoramas in a number of locations, both urban and rural that encouraged the viewer to reconsider the environment around them. 

Over the past decade, since graduating, he has had solo shows in London, New York, Hamburg and Brussels. In 1999 he was awarded the Mark Rothko Travel Scholarship. He has exhibited in Trafalgar Square, the Hayward Gallery in London, the Turner Contemporary in Margate and at the Guggenheim Museum in Venice, Italy. Newman's work is held in major public and private collections including: MUDAM: The Contemporary Art Museum of Luxembourg, the 21st Century Museum of Contemporary Art, Japan, and Goldman Sachs. His work is installed permanently Cambridge, UK and in Nine Elms, London, UK.
