About
“Richard targets what is unique in people in materials in ideas and then repurposes these raw materials into something even more raw, downright visceral, with no apologies . . . Richard’s work is often humorous, is edgy, and often a little threatening . . . The world could benefit from more respect and appreciation of the contradictions and humor in all our lives. Thanks Richard, for setting the example.”
—UMBERTO CRENCA,
Artistic Director, AS220
Richard Goulis creates video installation works using found objects as his medium. Most of Goulis’ work incorporates video within the pieces themselves or as projected images on non-traditional surfaces. Goulis finds inspiration in everything around him, “I probably cannot find a place in the known universe, and the unknown, in which I don’t find some inkling of interest that might someday or another translate into a piece of artwork, video or performance…There is nothing new about using discarded or found objects in creating art.” But Goulis specializes in using these found objects to create art that re-purposes an object, creating something “greater than what was put in.”
