Robert Bricker is a figurative bronze sculptor who began stone carving the figure when he was 15 years old. He received his BFA in sculpture from the Philadelphia College of Art, and by the age of 25 established his own bronze foundry business in Charlottesville. A realist sculptor who has created many realist portraits and monuments, he is also deeply interested in personal expression with the figure. Imagination and composition are paramount priorities. He explains, “I am a spacial thinking artist, and my work is consistently an expression of form in space. I am dedicated to creating figurative imagery that is poetically ambiguous as to its meaning, with the full intention that the viewer’s interpretation of my work is as valid as why I made it in the first place.”
