Artist Statement of Work:

As dynamic and spirited as ever in their composition, bringing life and energy to the spaces they occupy, Kevin’s sculptures provide beautiful and timeless snapshots of individual moments impossibly suspended in time. These free-flowing sculptural expressions in stainless steel are distinguished by their smooth, graceful edges and seamless metal intersections, revealing the high caliber welding involved. Bringing life, energy, and beauty to the spaces they occupy, Kevin’s sculptures work equally well in intimate settings and larger public environments.

Artist Bio:

Over the past three decades, renowned Colorado metal sculptor Kevin Robb has made his mark on the national and international art scene. With a unique style and consummate welding quality that have defined and differentiated his work, Kevin’s sculptures are not created according to a set plan. The placement of each element is an answer to a question of relationships, which he discovers as the work is in progress. He becomes one with the metal and intuitively knows the precise twists and turns that will be required to achieve the desired result.

Today, Kevin Robb creates sculptural expressions in bronze and stainless steel, magnificent works crafted by Kevin since he suffered a massive stroke in 2004. Although he has been challenged physically in the creation of his sculptures, Kevin is in the studio creating the art work that he loves so much. His ideas remain free flowing and his commitment to quality is as high as ever — with a resolve that offers a physical testament to the dedication, expertise, and amazing recovery of this remarkable artist.

Born and raised in Boulder, Colorado, sculptor Kevin Robb grew up spending summers on his grandfather’s farm, where he learned to weld and would build things with found objects for fun.  He studied graphic design and worked in advertising, but felt his career was “flat and missing something”.  He discovered large scale metal sculptures and has now been a professional sculptor for over 32 years.
