| Bob Trotman (American, b. 1947)
"Working mostly in wood, I see my efforts in relation to the vernacular traditions of carved religious figures, ship’s figureheads, and the so-called "show figures" found outside shops in the nineteenth century. However, as a contemporary artist, I want to use this tradition as a point of departure for satirical commentary on the workings of money and power in America today. I am particularly interested in the degrading effects of corporate capitalism on politics and society." -Bob Trotman
Bob Trotman was born in Winston-Salem, NC in 1947. He received a B/A. in philosophy in 1969 from Washington and Lee University and, after a few years as an English teacher, has maintained a studio in rural Western North Carolina since the mid-seventies. Self-taught in art, he has received two NEA grants and four grants from the NC Arts Council. His work is held in the permanent collections of many museums including Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art, The Columbia Museum of Art, The Museum of Art of the Rhode Island School of Design, The North Carolina Museum of Art, The Virginia Museum of Fine Arts, The Gregg Museum of Art and Design,The Weatherspoon Museum of Art, The Renwick Gallery of the Smithsonian Institution, The Mint Museum, and the Museum of Art and Design in new York, (among others). In 2020 he was named to the College of Fellows of the American Craft Council. |
