Robert Erskine Online Art Listing

Robert Erskine was born in London. From an early age he displayed an enquiring disposition towards all things mechanical. At 4 years of age he successfully locked, without keys, the family’s late 50’s Kelvinator fridge and aged 6 he started dismantling the family car, after which it was decided that his fathers' tool chest must be kept firmly locked! He then progressed to using the family cutlery as stone carving tools and a personal turning point took place in 1967, aged 13, he was taken to St Paul de Vence, Provence, to visit the Maeght Art Foundation. The exhibition was of paintings by Marc Chagall and a memorial exhibition of sculpture by Giacometti, who had recently died. Enquiring as to the meaning of a huge banner across the road to the museum proclaiming the word ‘SCULPTURE’, he was told to go inside to see. The exhibition confirmed that what he wanted to do was 'make sculpture'.
