Bob Coronato: Western Artist (Part 1) - Epi. 298, Host Dr. Mark Sublette
Had a nice talk with artist Bob Coronato today, and it went on for a long time. We went over two hours so it's a two parter for sure. Bob's lived an interesting, unique life. He's been in Wyoming for most of his life at this point, but he actually grew up in New Jersey.
We hear the whole story of how he managed to get out of New Jersey and wind up at the Otis Institute of Fine Art in Los Angeles. after a bit he moves to Wyoming where he meets and works with cowboys, and it's just domino after domino of these life events that make Bob into the Western artist he is today.
So we had this lovely talk about his life and this first part is all about his becoming an artist and really the early days of his career. Part two has a lot to do with his painting of Lakota activist Russell Means that currently hangs in the Smithsonian National Portrait Gallery.
We handle his etchings on occasion when I get them and he's just a super nice guy. So I hope you enjoy. Art Dealer Diaries Podcast epi 298 with Bob Coronato. This is part one.
