Introduction
Horace Clifford Westermann (December 11, 1922 – November 3, 1981) was an American sculptor and printmaker. His sculptures frequently incorporated traditional carpentry and marquetry techniques, mixed media and a range of personal, literary, artistic, and pop-cultural references. The artist's craftsmanship and uncanny, sometimes humorous presentation of seemingly simple objects has led critics to compare his work to that of Surrealist-inspired artists such as Joseph Cornell, as well as Assemblage, Dada and Folk art.
