The Forgotten Man

Born in Dublin Campbell studied art at the Metropolitan School of Art under Patrick Tuohy along with his brother Laurence who became a sculptor. He exhibited over 70 works at the RHA and, as well as painting, also did stained glass and worked for a while at the Harry Clarke Stained Glass Studios.
Bruce Arnold best summed up the artist in a catalogue introduction, where he described him as “Introverted, self conscious, shy, dominated by his mother, overshadowed by his brother, unsuccessful in selling his work, increasingly bewildered in the direction he was going, yet with a firm and lasting belief in his basic skills and his vision, Christopher Campbell presents himself an enigmatic figure in Irish Art”.
