Throughout his youth, Calvin took inspiration from noted Woodstock artists, from these mountains and streams and from the tidal zones of the East Coast. Immersion in, and protection of these environments are at his core. These, and the vast wilderness regions of Alaska, Wyoming and the Yucatan are but a few of the pristine worlds that inform and authenticate his art. Calvin's work is in private, corporate and institutional collections throughout the US and in nine other countries. Awards include a Pollack-Krasner Foundation Grant; the Phoebe and Belmont Towkin Award (WAA); the Ann Cox Chambers Award, Bard College (Lacoste, France). He has both produced and been a subject in films regarding his art, the home he built himself, Woodstock history, and environmental issues, as well as numerous publications, a number of which he has written. He has lectured and curated exhibitions. His work is in the Permanent Collection of the Woodstock Artist Association and Museum. More specific information is available at: www.calvingrimm.com.By clicking "Earthworks in Water" one can view a six-minute video discussing the relationship between his paintings and his environmental installations. He can be found on the trail, building at his home or painting in his studio.
