Roberts-Gray
Andrew Roberts-Gray is an artist whose layered work references a number of discrete cultural traditions including science fiction, the history of the painted landscape, and the development of the thinking machine. His studio is located at SAW, (Studio for Arts and Works) in Carbondale, Colorado.
He enjoys the art mentoring process as well as collaborating with other
artists. His studio work involves practicing brushwork, material experimentation, printmaking, the metamorphosis of mistakes, and
research. From 1987 to 1998 Mr. Roberts-Gray was a senior exhibition
technician at the Guggenheim Museum in New York City. The artist
received one of the prestigious 9 month inaugural Fellowships granted by
the Aspen Art Museum in 2019.
Roberts-Gray’s painting “Abstraction #22”, a six foot by eight foot oil painting on canvas, was acquired in 2023 by the Denver Art Museum for their permanent collection.
Mr. Roberts-Gray is represented by Michael Warren Contemporary in
Denver, Colorado and by East West Fine Art in Naples Florida. He lives
with his wife artist Annette Roberts-Gray in Carbondale, Colorado
ARTIST STATEMENT
I create layered, painterly, and image driven works that draw on a number of distinct cultural
disciplines. These disciplines include the development of the computer, the history of the
landscape, the iconography, and the realm of science fiction. Each painting acts as a unique
intersection of these fields. This broad approach allow room to interrelate images, materials,
and techniques in unforeseen combinations that can refer to history or be wholly invented.
