Exhibition closes February 1, 2025

 
 

Wisconsin artist, Bill Reid, creates brightly painted metal sculptures with wonderful stories. Imaginary animals built from wordplay, such as the Distanteater and the Artelope tell the stories of the artist’s own folklore. Often mechanical and toy-like, his creations are made entirely of welded pieces of thin sheet metal and metal rods. Reid’s work ranges in size from super small to motor vehicle size.

Born in Buffalo, NY, Reid received his BFA from the Kansas City Art Institute and MFA from the Cranbrook Academy of Art. He is currently the Artist in Residence at the Prairie School in Racine, Wisconsin. His work has gained him numerous awards and has allowed him over a dozen museum exhibitions across the country.
