Sculptor and Poet: Bert Gilbert

Play

He experienced one tragedy that nearly cost him his arm and witnessed a second, fatal, tragedy. The incidents forced Bert Gilbert to assess his life. He opted to dive deep into his untapped reservoir of creativity. He was a construction contractor by day (now retired) and an artist and poet in his spare time. Gilbert now devotes all his days to making art in a variety of media. Several of Gilbert’s sculptures are on display at the Sculpture Trails Outdoor Museum near Solsberry.
