Did You Know That Singer Robbie Williams Is A Bonafide Artist? Here’s Where You Can See His Art In London

Singer Robbie Williams has many talents, both on and off stage; his work is now showing at an art museum in London.



Robbie Williams, of Take That and solo fame, has been an artist on stage for over 30 years. However, it is perhaps less known that his talents lie in another medium too: he’s also an artist on canvas. Yep, I was surprised to walk into the Moco Museum in Marble Arch, London, and be greeted by a whole wall of art by Robbie Williams.

The Millenium, Angels, and Rock DJ hitmaker started his career in 1990, as the youngest member of Take That. After leaving the band in 1995, and enjoying a nearly 30-year-strong solo music career, he’s now bringing his contemporary artwork to the masses. His first solo exhibition took place at Moco Museum Amsterdam earlier this year, and now we’ve been blessed with some of the collection, right here in London.

So, what is his artwork like

My first impression of Williams’ art was just how bold and colourful the pieces were. Each work uses bright colours, and the subject matter endearingly combines humour and honest vulnerability. His artistic journey began during his first stint in rehab back in the 90s, and the artworks are almost a visual diary of his mental health journey. They reference themes of external pressure, shame, fear, and other inner demons, but with light colours and a light – almost comedic – tone.

Where can you see Robbie Williams’ artwork

Robbie Williams’ collection is currently located on the third floor of London’s Moco Museum, a minute’s walk from Marble Arch underground station. It is billed as a temporary exhibition; however, there is currently no news on when it will be leaving the museum.

Moco Museum is an internationally renowned museum of modern and contemporary art. It has locations in Amsterdam, Barcelona, and London, with the latter opening in August 2024 as the flagship location. Other artists who appear in the museum, alongside Robbie Williams, include Damien Hirst, Banksy, Andy Warhol, Yayoi Kusama, Keith Haring, Jean-Michel Basquiat, and KAWS.

London tickets: see art by Robbie Williams

To access this temporary Robbie Williams exhibition, you’ll need to buy a ticket to Moco Museum. You’ll then need to get the lift to the top floor, or walk up the stairs (it’s one flight of stairs, as you enter the muse um onto the middle of the three floors). Your ticket, of course, benefits you access to the rest of the museum too.
