Robert Mangold

Robert Mangold (born October 12, 1937) is an American minimalist artist.Mangold was born in North Tonawanda, New York. His mother, Blanche, was a department store buyer, and his father, Aloysius Mangold, worked at an organ factory.He first trained at the Cleveland Institute of Art from 1956 to 1959, and then at Yale University, New Haven, (BFA, 1961; MFA, 1963). In 1961 he married Sylvia Plimack, and they moved to New York.â€œRobert Mangoldâ€™s paintings,â€ wrote Michael Kimmelman in the New York Times in 1997, â€œare more complicated to describe than they seem, which is partly whatâ€™s good about them: the way they invite intense scrutiny, which, in the nature of good art, is its own reward.â€ His works are comprised often of simple elements which are put together through complex means. Mangold's work challenges the typical connotations of what a painting is or could be, and his works often appear as objects rather than images. Elements refer often to architectural elements or have the feeling of an architect's hands. He almost always works in extensive series, often carried through both paintings and works on paper.
