==Later works== Landy made little art in the year following ''Break Down'' before returning with a solo show in late 2002, entitled ''Nourishment''. The exhibition consisted of a series of detailed etchings of weeds, rendered in the traditional style of [[botany|botanical]] draughtsmanship. The intricate detailing is reported to have resulted in lasting eye damage for Landy.{{Citation needed|date=February 2010}} In 2003, Landy was selected to chair the judging panel for the [[Beck's Futures]] art prize. In 2008, [[Ridinghouse]] published ''Michael Landy: Everything Must Go!'', Landy's first monograph, which brings together over 20 years of the artist's work for the first time.<ref>{{cite web|title=Everything Must Go!|url=http://www.ridinghouse.co.uk/publications/29/|publisher=Ridinghouse|access-date=7 August 2012}}</ref> It was in this year that Landy was elected a member of the Royal Academy. Landy's ''Art Bin'' installation for the [[South London Gallery]] in February–March 2010 was described by the artist as "a monument to creative failure." A large transparent skip was installed at the gallery, into which he invited the public to throw art work with which they were dissatisfied.<ref name="times">{{cite news|url=http://entertainment.timesonline.co.uk/tol/arts_and_entertainment/visual_arts/article7057249.ece|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110615072321/http://entertainment.timesonline.co.uk/tol/arts_and_entertainment/visual_arts/article7057249.ece|url-status=dead|archive-date=15 June 2011|title=Michael Landy: make it, break it?

In 2016, Museum Tinguely Basel curated Landy's first retrospective exhibition titled "Michael Landy. Out of Order". It spanned his entire career, bringing together works from ''Break Down'', ''Credit Card Destroying Machine'', and ''Saints Alive'' among many others.<ref>{{Cite web |title=michael-landy {{!}} Museum Tinguely Basel |url=https://www.tinguely.ch/en/exhibitions/exhibitions/2016/michael-landy.html |access-date=2024-05-22 |website=tinguely.ch}}</ref>
