Katherine Gili (born 1948) is a British sculptor. After completing her studies at Bath Academy of Art and St Martin's School of Art, Gili taught at a number of art schools; most notably St Martin's and Norwich between 1972 and 1985.
Her sculpture was exhibited for the first time in 1973 and well over a hundred times since. Gili's career is marked by solo shows in London and New York and by contributions to seminal survey exhibitions at major venues such as the Hayward Gallery. In recent years she has regularly shown in the Royal Academy Summer Exhibitions and notably in 2013 her sculpture "Ripoll" won the Sculpture Prize.
Katherine Gili's work is represented in the Arts Council Collection, Tate and other public and corporate collections in the UK, Switzerland and the USA. Lord Foster selected one of her pieces to stand alongside the Cranfield University Institute of Technology Library which was designed by Foster Associates in 1992.
Early life
Gili was born in Oxford to father Joan Gili, Catalan publisher and translator, and Elizabeth (née McPherson or MacPherson), cookbook author, artist, and the daughter of a Scottish-Canadian missionary. Her brother was filmmaker Jonathan Gili. Gili graduated from Bath Academy of Art in 1970 and then studied for two years at St Martin's School of Art.
