Richard Caldicott (born 1962, Leicester, England) is an interdisciplinary artist who lives and works in London, England. After achieving global recognition as a photographer in the 1990s for a series of abstract photographs he took of Tupperware products, Caldicott embarked on a process of expanding his body of work, adding painting, drawing, inkjet printing and photogram to his studio practice.

Caldicott attended the College of Art and Design at Loughborough University, Leicestershire, England, in 1980–81. He received his Bachelor of Arts degree in 1984 from Middlesex Polytechnic (now Middlesex University) in London, and earned his Master of Arts degree from the Royal College of Arts (RCA) in London in 1987. From 1988 through 1992 he was a Research Fellow at the RCA. While studying at the RCA, Caldicott was the recipient of the Venice Studio Award in 1985, and the Cité International des Arts – Paris Studio Award in 1986. In 1991, he was a recipient of an artist's grant from the British Council.^{[1][self-published source]}

The work of Richard Caldicott has been extensively critically reviewed, most notably in The Village Voice,^[2] The Guardian weekend edition,^[3] Architectural Digest,^[4] The New York Times,^[5] The New Yorker,^[6] which stated about Caldicott's work, "Although the work is light and unpretentious, echoes of Kasimir Malevich, Ellsworth Kelly, and Robert Mangold give it some weight," and Wallpaper (magazine),^[7] which stated, "His work is photographic, yet it is not figurative. By using the camera to record collages and constructions, Caldicott has carved himself a unique aesthetic niche that manages to reference iconic modernism without reverting to familiar forms."
