Really Big Faces was much more than an exhibition of art. It was a celebration of the diverse stories that make up our amazing city. With this exhibit, artist Tom Mosser celebrates of 83 Pittsburghers and one golden retriever. He celebrates all of us.
Tom creates amazing art using his signature “Flow”, “Funnel Flow” and “Loop” techniques to create the Really Big Faces. Tom was inspired by the scale of the portrait art of Chuck Close, the drip technique of Jackson Pollock , the color palette of Andy Warhol, and drawing style of Bernie Fuchs.
Nick and I were honored to be asked to share some of those diverse stories in the podcast. This weeks episode is special because of the faces, their powerful stories, and the beginning of new friendships and collaboration.
The Really Big Faces are not for sale but you can reach out to him to find out how you can rent the display for your event, fundraiser, or your building.
