Richard Swenson – Short Biography
After retiring from his career as physicist, Richard Swenson was inspired to start assembling scraps of farm machinery and spare tractor parts into whimsical welded sculptures. Soon he was sculpting herds of life-sized horses, towering giraffes, and sinuous Oriental dragons.
The fundamental theme of Richard Swenson’s art is, “The Primacy of Nature Over the Industrial Society.” It is Swenson’s hope that his sculpture, created from the spare parts cast aside by our throw-away culture, serves to remind us of our vital connection to the natural world.
Richard Swenson’s work is widely held in private, corporate and museum collections.
