After it’s successful run at The Heckscher Museum of Art, the exhibition Robert Carter: The Art of Reflection has travelled to The Cressman Center for Visual Art in Louisville, KY, especially significant as Louisville is Carter’s home town. The exhibition will be on view through September 27, 2025.
Robert Graham Carter (American, b. 1938) is a visual artist best known for his mixed-media works including commanding drawings; sculptural, high-relief paintings; and whimsical works on wood. Carter’s figurative compositions routinely speak to systemic societal issues with a specificity derived from his lived experiences. This exhibition is curated by Sarah Battle, research curator at the Speed Art Museum in Louisville, Kentucky, with support from Camille Pratt, artist, and digitization specialist at Digital Transitions-Pixel Acuity.
In Carter’s own words, learn about his work and process through the Museum’s Bloomberg Connects app, including a highlights tour of select works in American Sign Language.
