Robert Moreland
Robert Moreland is a minimalist sculptor/painter living and working in Los Angeles. The artist explores line, color and 3-dimensionality in a manner that has roots in early minimalism and yet is presented in an entirely contemporary way. Instead of simply experimenting with shaped canvasses or geometric painting alone, he folds the 2-dimensional plane to see how line and color are disrupted by actual volume. Like the creators of 1960s “painting objects”, Moreland creates in the un-conventional space between painting and sculpture.
Hailing from south Louisiana, Moreland unofficially studied painting and sculpture at Louisiana State University. Moreland is a 2016 Rema Hort Mann Founda-tion Grant Nominee and his work is a part of the Frederick R. Weisman Collection. He has been exhibited in NYC, Louisiana, Los Angeles, Seoul and New Orleans.
