Robert Adams

Robert Adams (May 29, 1917 - March 4, 1984) was a prominent figure among the British modernists and a Penwith Society of Arts member. He was a highly acclaimed sculptor known for his abstract and expressive sculptures; Adams incorporated organic forms, textures, and found objects into his sculptures, creating a harmonious blend between the human-made and the natural world. He experimented with materials like welded steel sheets, bronze, and stainless steel. Adams' work titled "Screen Form" in the Penwith Portfolio showcases his distinctive approach to form and composition in a two-dimensional format. It is characterized by clean lines and a sense of balance and harmony; the composition exudes a sense of solidity and stability.
