Artist Information
Ernest Trova (1927-2009) was a self-trained American painter and sculptor. Best known for his signature image and figure series, The Falling Man, Trova considered his entire output a single "work in progress." He began as a painter, progressing through three-dimensional constructions to his mature medium, sculpture. Trova was among the most widely acknowledged sculptors working in the United States, resulting in invitations to exhibit in three Whitney Annuals and three Venice Biennales. In 1969, his work was heralded by the New York Times as “among the best of contemporary American sculpture,” and throughout decades, many examples of his sculpture were prominently displayed in dozens of major museums including the Museum of Modern Art, the Whitney Museum of American Art and the Walker Art Center in Minneapolis.
