Robert Poteet Victory
Robert Poteet Victory brings a classic consciousness to bear on contemporary times.
Poteet Victory By J. Robert Keating Published by Atmosphere Press 1st Edition hardcover book Signed by Poteet Victory, Terry Victory and J. Robert Keating.
His landscapes and abstracts have a fresh, here and now vitality, yet they exhibit a kinship with ancient Greece and the Renaissance in their formal excellence and in their expression of fundamental concepts of life.
These paintings form a bridge that spans the kaleidoscopic present and the clear perspective of the past.
Heroic yet deeply human, they exist outside time and place, as though the artist inhabited a historic period and the modern era simultaneously.
Often there are traces of his Native American background that he is able to blend with his classical training, and he frequently combines and juxtaposes the mirror-like sections of the paintings with sand-textured portions.
The end results are not only captivating in their brilliance and depth, but stunning in their design and color.
Poteet Victory studied at the Arts Students League in New York City in 1980
