Baker Artist Portfolios

Robert Marbury is a multi-disciplinary artist working in fabric, photography and fur. Exploring the liminal spaces in contemporary culture, Marbury highlights norms and social rules and pairs them with an absurdist manifesto.
Marbury embraces creativity as meditation with diverse projects ranging from the Baltimore Yeti to Presidential Facial Hair Portraits. His production-focused methodology is heavily influenced by research and the study of Anthropology.
Marbury is a co-founder of the Minnesota Association of Rogue Taxidermists and lectures internationally about Taxidermy and Cabinets of Curiosities.
He has received support from the State of Minnesota, Aljira Contemporary Arts in Newark, NJ, the Soap Factory in Minneapolis, Bates College, Kansas City Artspace, and The Contemporary Arts Forum in Kitchen, Ontario. Marbury received his BA in Anthropology from Connecticut College and a post-Bac from the Minneapolis College of Art and Design. His book, Taxidermy Art, was published by Artisan Books in 2014. Robert lives and works in Baltimore.
