James Grashow, Who Turned Cardboard Into Art, Dies at 83
He was best known for huge, fantastical installations that were not always built to last, including a version of the Trevi Fountain in Rome.
James Grashow, a sculptor and woodcut artist who made his name with outsize installations fashioned from corrugated cardboard, including a sprawling — and intentionally impermanent — version of the Trevi Fountain in Rome, died on Sept. 15 at his home in Redding, Conn. He was 83.
The cause was pancreatic cancer, his wife, Lesley Grashow, said.
With influences as diverse as 16th-century woodblock prints and 20th-century Pop Art, Mr. Grashow channeled warring impulses toward the whimsical and the dark into a variety of mediums, in two dimensions and three.
