Patrick Webb Born 1955
American, Painter

Born in New York City in 1955 Webb studied at Yale University , Skowhegan, and the Maryland Institute College of Art. He is well known for his on-going, "Commedia dell'Arte," Punchinello series. He says, "I see Punchinello as an outsider whose adventures are a way of exploring the experience of difference. Punchinello, the trickster or fool from the Italian theatrical tradition of the 'Commedia dell'Arte,' became the protagonist for my narratives." Patrick Webb lives and works in New York City .
