Anthony Canham is a British artist and master printmaker best known for his long-standing role as a collaborator and printer at Kelpra Studio in London. Kelpra Studio was one of the most influential print workshops in postwar Britain, working with leading modern and contemporary artists to produce high-quality screenprints and editions.
Canham worked closely with major figures including Bridget Riley, Victor Vasarely, and Patrick Caulfield, contributing significantly to the technical realization of complex print editions. His expertise in screenprinting and color separation made him a key figure behind the production of many important Op Art and modernist prints.
While primarily recognized as a master printer rather than a traditional exhibiting artist, works associated with Anthony Canham carry strong historical relevance due to their connection to Kelpra Studio and its role in advancing printmaking as a fine art medium.
