Over the last four and a half decades, Atlanta, Georgia based artist, Curtis Patterson, has been developing and producing thought-provoking art on a variety of scales. Concurrent with much of his early career in art fabrication, he was, also, a professor of sculpture and design at The Atlanta College of Art (now SCAD) for thirty years.

Many of Patterson’s captivating works have been exhibited at sites both nationally and internationally, which include shows in the United States, France, Nigeria, Sweden and Italy. His intrigue with the manipulation of three-dimensional space and objects is clearly evident in his sculptures, which by virtue of their distinctive design, stimulate investigation and promote curiosity.

Hands on by nature, Patterson enjoys producing a range of mid to large scale ‘invitational sculptures’ for public and private venues that encourage viewer participation. He aims to deliver works that respond to and resonate with their surrounding environment. He enjoys his audiences being able to physically access and experience his pieces and frequently embeds subtle surprises within his work as a reward for those who are motivated to engage, explore and discover.
