Work Life
Richard Trupp has spent his life working with steel, transforming the ordinary and small-scale into works that are monumental and meaningful.
Influences
The late Sir Anthony Caro, Trupp’s mentor, once described him as “ambitious”—a fitting tribute to an artist whose work pays homage to his sculptural forebears while confidently forging his own path.
Style
Trupp’s distinctive sculptures reflect Caro’s industrial leanings but are driven by a personal and emblematic direction. His approach honors tradition while actively evolving the language of contemporary sculpture.
Subjects of work
Rarely confined to their physical boundaries, Trupp’s works often engage with their surrounding environment, creating a dynamic dialogue between sculpture and space.
Exhibitions
Trupp’s installations have been exhibited across the UK and internationally. In 2022, he was selected to represent Great Britain at the prestigious Venice Biennale.
