Art by Rich Wagner

Artist Rich Wagner
Richard H. Wagner grew up with art. His mother was a professional artist and his father was an amateur artist.  An elected member of the the Art Students League of New York with more than 250 credit hours, Rich has also taken classes in art technique and/or art history at the Courtauld Institute, Museum of Modern Art, the Metropolitan Museum and the University of Oxford.

Rich exhibits often.  (See Exhibitions and Galleries). Examples of his work are included in private collections and in the Law Library at Pace University.

Mindful of Paul Gauguin's advice: "It is better to paint from memory: your soul triumphs," Rich's works are based on experience but as seen through the filter of memory.  

Paintings can transport us to other places. Rich's Impressionistic acrylic landscapes transport us to a world of tranquility and serenity.  Full of color, they convey a feeling of peace, the world as we would want it to be.

In other works, the style is aggressive and highly confrontational yet often with tender and caring elements.  The themes that occupy these works concern issues surrounding the isolation of the individual in terms of relationships,  society, and emotionally.  

"I explore emotions through visual analogies.  Often this is a focus on the transitory yet enduring image of the individual.  However, there is also communication in the juxtaposition of individuals and society.  Still others observe the absence of  humanity."

​Mr. Wagner has degrees from Cornell University, Iona College and Pace University. He has also studied law at Cambridge University in England. In addition to his art work, Mr. Wagner is a writer and has written more than a thousand articles published in print or online including more than 50 biographical profiles of major artists (See Artist Biographies).  He also was a practicing attorney for 20 years.
