Robert Morris - United States

Art Brokerage: Robert Morris American Artist: b. 1931. Kansas City. Robert Morris is an American sculptor, conceptual artist and writer. He is regarded as one of the most prominent theorists of Minimalism along with Donald Judd but he has also made important contributions to the development of performance art, minimalism, land art, the Process Art movement and installation art. Initially a painter, Morris' work of the 1950s was influenced by Abstract Expressionism and particularly Jackson Pollock. While living in California, Morris also came into contact with the work of La Monte Young and John Cage. The idea that art making was a record of a performance by the artist in the studio led to an interest in dance and choreography. During the 1950s, Morris thus grew interested in dance. Morris developed the same idea into his first Minimal Sculptures Two Columns shown in 1961, and L Beams (1965). Morris' first exhibition of paintings was held in 1957 at the Dilexi Gallery in San Francisco. Numerous museums have hosted solo exhibitions of his work. Listings wanted by Art Brokerage.
