Trent Altman | Kentucky Life | KET
Trent Altman, 35, of Louisville has made a name for himself in the world of art. Diagnosed with autism as a child, he began painting in his 20s. His work is known not only in the autism community, but in the fine art world as well.
He has sold his paintings and collages in fine art shows throughout the Eastern United States. He was also chosen in 2012 as one of eight international artists whose work is featured on a United Nations stamp promoting autism awareness.
Altman paints abstract pieces in acrylics and creates mixed media collages on canvas. An Ocean Shore Sunset shimmers with red, gold, and pink. An Abstract Garden II, the artwork selected for the U.N.'s World Autism Awareness Day, glows with ruby red, green, and white.
Altman's mother, Jackie Marquette, an autism transition specialist, serves as his manager. His artist statement says: His work displays an emphasis and commitment to the PROCESS of art making over and above the PRODUCT. Experiencing his work makes that abundantly clear. You can sense a freedom of expression, movement, energy and drive through the multiple methods of applying paint and collage materials.
