Robert Gober
Wallingford (Connecticut), 1954
American-born sculptor and installation, and probably one of the most talked-about artist of the 1990s.
Gober was trained at the Middlebury College, Vermont and the Tyler School of Art, Rome. His first solo-exhibition was held at the Paula Cooper Gallery, New York, in 1984. While Gober´s shocking imagery ? from wallpaper that depicts male and female sexual organs to human legs that stick out of the wall, has gained a lot of public and media attention, some major art critics continue to have discerning views about his creativity.
