Tom Duncan
Tom Duncan\u2019s love for sculpture began at age 4 when he was given a clay set by his aunt. Born in Scotland in 1939 just before World War II broke out, he moved with his mother and brother to New York City shortly after the war ended. Much of Duncan\u2019s artwork reflects memories of his childhood during the war.\n\nHe is an original tenant at Westbeth, where his three daughters, Rachel, Gwynne, and Jane, grew up. In his Westbeth studio, he has created mixed media pieces like\xa0Dedicated to Coney Island\xa0and\xa0Portrait of Tom with a Migraine Headache, each of which took some twenty-five years to complete.\n\n\nTom Duncan (b. 1939) Detail of The Execution of Private Slovik, 2009 mixed media 74 x 21.5 x 12.5 inches\n\n\n\n\nTom Duncan (b. 1939) Detail of 5 Catholic High School Girls ..., 2001 Mixed media 37 x 22 x 1.5 inches\n\nTom Duncan (b. 1939) Portrait of Tom with a Migraine Headache, 2013 Mixed media 128.75 x 61.5 inches
