Castle, James (American draftsman and painter, 1899-1977)
|
Note: Castle was born profoundly deaf, and began drawing from an early age. He was completely self-taught and mostly drew with soot and saliva on salvaged pieces of paper and cardboard. His drawings were his primary form of communication, and depicted elements of his life in rural Idaho. Late in life his work began to be recognized, but after his death his work has become well-known and has been exhibited internationally in the Venice Biennale, and in major exhibitions at the Philadelphia Art Museum, the Smithsonian American Art Museum, and elsewhere. |
