Richard Trupp has worked with steel all his life. He transforms the miniature and mundane into the monumental and significant. “Richard is ambitious,” noted the late Sir Anthony Caro of his protege, whose art is grounded in a deep respect for his sculptural forebears. Richard’s signature sculptures are a nod to his mentor’s industrial leanings but also a very emblematic direction of his own. He continues in the Caro vein, pushing the possibilities of sculpture forward. His work is rarely self-contained or limited to its own physical boundaries, but frequently seeks to reference aspects of the broader environmental context surrounding it. Successful installations are sited Internationally and across the UK and in 2022 Richard represented Great Britain at the Venice Biennale.
