Richard Tuttle (b. 1941, Rahway, New Jersey) is a pioneering American postminimalist whose work resists categorization. Since the mid-1960s, he has created delicate and unconventional objects that blur distinctions between drawing, painting, and sculpture. Working with humble materials—string, paper, cloth, wire, and wood—Tuttle emphasizes scale, placement, and the subtleties of perception. His practice invites viewers into an intimate, poetic encounter with form and space. Tuttle has exhibited internationally for more than five decades, with major retrospectives at institutions including the Whitney Museum of American Art and SFMOMA.
