About the Item
Born in San Francisco in 1952, Thom Ross has had a life long interest in American History and the "folk hero" who is a product of that history and has long been the motivating force behind his work. Ross probes history's dark side for iconic villains with huge stories, creating stylized, high-drama, high contrast portraits accessorized with specific historic accoutrements. Space is flattened and figures are abstracted in bold strokes against monochromatic backgrounds. Still, these bad boys carry a sense of humor via Ross's playful color use. Primary and primal, color is his way of refining his miscreants against a black and white history of "wanted" posters and microfiched police blotters. This is a testosterone-fueled world of gun fighters, warriors, boxers and thieves.
In addition to works on canvas, Ross creates free-standing, oversized, painted wood cutouts, animated by vibrant color and deft handling of scale. Installed in the landscape, these pieces become grand theater. Like a child arranging toy soldiers in intricate battle positions, Ross poses his cutouts to recreate iconic moments in history, his way. Living in Seattle, Thom Ross shows in numerous galleries throughout the USA and now lectures at colleges on the Wild West where he combines a unique and passionate presentation of art and history.
