For over 25 years, Robert Zott has taken photographs of tombstones bearing single last names that are common English words. The New York Times has said“Robert Zott’s surveying of graveyards to find tombstones with startlingly appropriate names on them is a fascinating and increasingly well-known obsession.” His work has appeared in numerous group and solo exhibitions including regional shows by Robert Storr and ThomasCollins. He was most recently included in the “Talk Talk” exhibition at Central Booking on NYC’s LowerEast Side. Zott is a resident of Artspace Hartford in Connecticut.
