Richard Trupp | Contemporary British Sculptor & Artist
Richard Trupp is one of the most talented and ambitious young British sculptors working today. Having gained a wealth of technical experience while serving as assistant to Sir Antony Caro, Trupp has now embarked upon his own creative enterprise. His work is grounded in a deep respect for the history of sculpture and a curiosity about the myths that have grown up around it.
Tom Flynn - Art Critic
Born in Birmingham, Richard Trupp has been strongly influenced by a city that once rejoiced in the sobriquet ‘the workshop of the world’. He relishes the monumental ironworks still surviving there, and relates his own attitude as a sculptor to the ‘hands-on’ attitude still found in this ‘city of makers’. When Antony Gormley’s defiant yet vulnerable Iron Man was installed so dramatically in Victoria Square, the vociferous response from the people of Birmingham fuelled the young Trupp’s burgeoning sculptural ambitions.
