Robert E. Kuhn Shenandoah Valley Artist

Permalink   

Born in Michigan in 1917, Kuhn attended the Art Institute of Chicago and was later hired by the Depression-era Works Progress Administration. He spent a few years in Mexico, where he learned to weld , before moving to Washington in the 1950s. Although he supported himself as an artist for years, he grew disillusioned with galleries. He relocated in 1966 to the Shenandoah Valley on Tanners Ridge, where he became reclusive and largely stopped selling his work.

Some of his sculptures were made available through, of all things, the J. Peterman catalogue.

I have seen some of Robert E Kuhn welding arts. To me he seemed very prolific.
