Over a 30-year career, Bailey has exhibited in the UK and across Europe and was part of the official program at the 2015 Venice Biennale. In 2016 his new body of work - 1000 Year Dance Cure - was the inaugural exhibition for Everard Read’s new gallery in Cape Town. Bailey has a history of close collaboration with other artists – most notably David Bowie, Brian Eno and Dave Matthews.
His work is represented in several important art collections, including the David Bowie Collection, the Getty Family Collection as well as the Oppenheimer Art Collection.
