Robert Riggs was an American artist known for his dynamic figurative drawings and prints, particularly his studies of dancers, athletes, and theatrical performers captured in moments of intense physical movement. Working primarily in charcoal, ink, and lithography during the mid-twentieth century, he developed a distinctive approach to rendering the human body in action, combining gestural immediacy with anatomical precision. His work emerged from a deep engagement with live observation and the formal language of modernist draftsmanship.
