Barry Baldwin was born in Staffordshire, England. He attended Stafford College of Art and Design, and Bath Academy of Art. Thereafter his knowledge in the use of material for his work was acquired through a long apprenticeship in a broad range of stone carving and casting techniques. Working mostly in a public and monumental mode, his work can be seen in major cities in the United Kingdom and Europe, often as an integral part of an architectural scheme.
But first a few words about my work.
Living and making sculpture involves the use of all the senses. It is a public challenge, sometimes a private burden. The pleasures overrule the disappointments. It is an activity which undeniably has played an important role in the development of civilisations, this despite having its fair number of clowns and misguided critics.
There is the certainty that much of my work displayed in its setting will exist long after its maker. Creating such a permanent mark unselfishly adds a purpose and importance to the activity itself. Making a living as a sculptor has its precarious times. I have been fortunate to have had the support of some individual patrons, and of corporate bodies, during my career. Without their enthusiasm and support much of the work would not have been possible
