Rob and Christian Clayton make up the contemporary painting super duo the Clayton Brothers. Working side by side and in partnership, brothers Clayton cover every inch of their collaborative works with childhood symbology placed in contemporary context. (Above, Clayton Brothers : Over Due : Artist Proof : Etching with Aquatint : 12x8" : 2003)
Over the past seventeen years, I have witnessed the growth and expansion of the Clayton Brother’s works and strongly feel they are two of the most important painters in today’s contemporary art field.
