Following his death, Sir [[Nicholas Serota]], director of the [[Tate]] gallery, said:
{{cquote|Angus Fairhurst was always deprecating about his own talent, but he made some of the most engaging, witty and perceptive works of his generation and was an enormously influential friend of other British artists who came to prominence in the early nineties.<ref>Brown, Mark.
