We mourn the loss of Richard Cramer who passed away on April 10, 2020. Richard Cramer taught at Tyler School of Art and Architecture from 1966 to 2003. He developed two unique courses during his time at Tyler: Urban Industrial Landscape and Color. Upon his retirement, he established The Richard Cramer Color Award in Painting for which we are most grateful. Read his obituary by his wife, Carol Markel.

Early in his career, Cramer developed a proprietary color mixing system to create thousands of nuanced colors for use in his color-field paintings. This work was shown widely in New York and across the country and at both the Philadelphia Museum of Art and the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts in a one-person exhibition in 1978. After this body of work, Cramer went on to create drawings and paintings in an abstract-figurative style.
