"Richard Kurtz is a textural adventurer, exploring the surfaces of old bank bags, antique luggage, children’s books — all of it left in his wake stamped with his flat, painterly icons in reds, blacks, and whites: boxing colors, bold and physical. This feisty imagery stands in contrast to the artist’s soft-spoken, meditative personality, making it that much more intriguing."

5 One Of A Kind Artist Books
One of a kind artist books by Richard Kurtz
The most intimate pieces by Richard Kurtz are his
hand painted old dictionaries.
Obsessively painted, each book is a nonlinear tale, a long poem, raw,
unflinching, and psychological.
These books, like sacred texts are diaries of Richard Kurtz’s life told through the voices of characters that inhabit his universe.
