Michael Fullerton (b.1971, Bellshill, Scotland) is an artist living and working in London.

Fullerton attended the Glasgow School of Art and graduated from the MA programme in 2002. In 2005 Michael's work has been shown at Tate Britain and The Centre for Contemporary Arts, Glasgow in the solo show Suck on Science. His solo show Are You Hung Up? was shown at the Transmission Gallery, Scotland as well as Counter Gallery, London in 2003. His most recent show was at Greene Naftali, New York, entitled Get Over Yourself in December 2006.

Despite his training as a painter Fullerton also works in a variety of other media, including printmaking and sculpture. He has painted the portraits of a number of eminent individuals, but his ambitions stretch far beyond the limits of traditional portraiture. In fact, his work may be seen as an investigation into some of life's great questions, such as the nature of truth, the reliability of evidence, the power of belief, and the relations between aesthetics and persuasion, information and knowledge.

He is represented by Counter Gallery, London
