FP Sculptors

Sculptors are at the moment are limited to just two FP’s, Keith McCarter and Kenny Munro.

Kenny Munro started at Northfield Broadway in 1959, and left Barnton in 1972, earning prizes – in 1971 the James Gray Memorial Prize for Art Appreciation, and in 1972 the Ness Trophy for Craftsmanship. Despite a hiccup with the ‘Whale Sculpture’ (q.v.), he went on to earn a Diploma and a Post.Dip. in Sculpture at Edinburgh College of Art, which set him off on a lifetime exploration of Art in the Environment. His entry, which includes sculpture examples from other members of his talented family, his FP brother, and his father can be seen here.

Keith McCarter has many of his substantial sculptures exhibited worldwide. Keith left the Royal High in 1954, and after National Service, attended and graduated from Edinburgh College of Art in 1960, gaining the Andrew Grant Scholarship for further study in Europe. He travelled next to New York, where he worked as glass designer for Steuben Glass. He Undertook an intensive study of materials used in construction industry that may be employed in art forms.
