Sculpture
Robert Benton Race works in a variety of sculptural media and styles. He often builds through intuitive practice and finishes his pieces with paint or patina. As with much of his early illustration and painting, the human figure is a prominent concern in his sculpture. Human scale and modern, many of his recent pieces contemplate the cost of violence and politics through deconstructing the figure.
