About the Item
This work arise out of a unique collaboration between V. Cybil Charlier, who immigrated
from Haiti to New York in the 1970s as a child, and Bob Clyatt an American sculptor with roots
in the US from the early colonial period. The artists have developed a process which embraces
the full fusion of their different histories and cultures into a single work of art as a way of
exploring aspects of pluralism, assimilation and identity in their contemporary American
experience.
BIO My sculptural practice engages traditional sculptural forms to explore cultural questions that puzzle or intrigue me. I generally find myself introducing some contemporary material, found object or other element into classical figurative or representational contexts. In recent years my work has centered on the human head/bust. Prior to that I developed a large body of high-relief, wall-hung sculptures made by pressing objects into clay, thereby creating a mold, then pouring over it a single cast of hard plasters blended with powdered Carrara marble. Bob was born in Oakland, CA and lives and has his studio in Rye, NY. His work has been exhibited in solo shows in Santa Fe (Jane Sauer Gallery) and New York (Lower East Side-Dacia Gallery and Bushwick- Anthony Philip Fine Art) as well as group shows in Paris, Hong Kong, Italy and throughout the U.S. His sculptures are in permanent collections of the Burchfield-Penney Museum in Buffalo, NY and Museo Arte Contemporanea Sicilia in Italy. The work has been reviewed in numerous art publications including Hyperallergic and featured in the NY Times, Wall St Journal and other national media. Bob spent 8 years in formal study of sculpture, centering on his years at the Art Students League of New York.

Three Graces with Smartphone
Located in Rye, NY
This piece was from the period when I created standing figures in clay working from live models. These three women were friends, students at SUNY Purchase, and enjoyed working together to develop their respective poses and the overall composition.
The piece derives from three specific art-historical references, fused into something contemporary.
The first, from the title, is from a long tradition of Three Graces sculptures...
