Rosco, 1986-1987
bronze with polychrome, unique, 6/6
25.5 x 10.5 x 8 inches
inscribed: Bates 6/6
David Bates, a Dallas native, is celebrated as one of Texas’ foremost artists. He earned his BFA from Southern Methodist University in 1975, followed by an MFA in 1978 after completing the Whitney Independent Study Program. Bates quickly gained recognition through group exhibitions at prestigious venues like the Corcoran Gallery of Art, the Metropolitan Museum of Art, and the Contemporary Arts Museum, Houston. His career highlights include being featured in the 1987 Whitney Biennial and the significant 2014 retrospective of his career co-organized by the Nasher Sculpture Center and the Modern Art Museum of Fort Worth.
Known for his bold paintings on canvas and panel, Bates also excels in sculpture. His art, characterized by strong forms and dark outlines, explores the boundaries of medium and draws inspiration from American Regionalism and modernists like Henri Matisse.
This fanciful sculpture by Bates, Rosco, was created in California and Bates’ former West Coast gallery, Berggruen, sold the entire edition of 6. Each piece in the edition were painted uniquely, making this piece truly one-of-a-kind.Condition
The sculpture appears to be in good condition with no damage or evidence of restoration. The surface of the sculpture is painted in multiple colors.
