ABOUT
RECOGNITION

Robert Pigott was born in the UK in 1948, in Brigg, Lincolnshire and educated at Brigg Grammar. Following the Art Foundation course at Leicester College of Art he moved to Stockport in Greater Manchester to study Art and Design for Advertising. In 1971 he won a scholarship with the advertising agency, J.Walter Thompson in London, and remained there as Art Director for several years.

During this time, he studied painting with the artist Rudolf Ray in London and in Mexico. Ray, whose work had been praised by fellow Austrian, Oskar Kokoschka, was an important influence. (Ray had previously worked with Marcel Duchamp in Paris and was to accompany him to New York in 1942, where Duchamp introduced Ray to Peggy Guggenheim). Despite the early encouragement from Ray it was only very much later that the process of art was taken more seriously.

He is currently dividing his time between painting and researching and writing a new book entitled, The Nazareth Parallel, a radical work which blurs the boundaries between Science and Religion. Many of his paintings are used in the book to illustrate his unique ideas and concepts. The painting Ananke is used on the cover design.
