Defender Courageous #2

Born in 1948, Wisconsin Artist, Milwaukee based printmaker, potter, and stained-glass artist Bob Danner is a versatile Milwaukee-based artist whose prolific output and paradoxical combination of fluidity and maniacal love of precision and detail has allowed him to excel in a variety of mediums including stain glass, photography, ceramics, pottery, and fine prints. His collected works are a panoply of objects including ceramic trophies for winners of the Arlington Million, artistic magazine cover shots, illustrated children's books, abstract and representative stain-glass pieces, and Mask (Who Meeeeee?), a screen print and lithograph composition that is part of the MoMA collection. Danner also uses his skills as an artist in residence for Roosevelt Middle School of the Arts in Milwaukee. At this school and others, Danner has guided countless children in the creation of individual works of art and large-scale installations.
