One of Britain’s best known and wealthiest sculptors, Kapoor, was born in Mumbai and arrived in this country to study art in the early 1970s. He currently has an estimated net worth of $700 million.
He represented the UK at the 1990 Venice Biennale and won the Turner prize a year later. Although he established his reputation with monumental public commissions, he has made most of his money by selling smaller-scale works. His company, White Dark, made a £14.6m profit on sales of £18.1m in 2009. It has net assets worth £28.2m and has paid out £4m in dividends to Kapoor over the past four years. He has invested heavily in property and has homes in London and the Bahamas.
