Robert Graham Carter: The Art of Reflection

February 2, 2025 – May 25, 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.

Conceived in direct collaboration with the artist, 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.
