Bob Wade (artist)
Bob "Daddy-O" Wade (born 1943) is an artist in Austin, Texas who helped shape the 1970s Texas Cosmic Cowboy counterculture. A retrospective of his work was exhibited at the South Austin Museum of Popular Culture in the fall of 2009.〔(SouthPop ) SouthPop〕〔''Bob Wade: 40 Years of Blood, Sweat and Beers''; catalog of South Austin Museum of Popular Culture, 'Jason Dean Mellard’, retrieved 10-16-09〕 He is best known for his creating oversized sculptures of Texas symbols and for experimenting with hand-tinting black-and-white vintage photographs transferred to large photo-emulsion canvases. His Giant Iguana sat on top of the Lone Star Cafe in New York City in 1978.
==Early life==
Son of a hotel manager, Wade grew up in several Texas cities. This early hotel life contributed to Wade's interests in the American road and highway kitsch. Finishing high school in El Paso, Wade joined a car club and would go south of the border to Juarez to enlist skilled technicians to customize his hot rod. Moving to Austin, Wade studied art at the University of Texas from 1961 to 1965. His slicked back hair, ’51 Ford hot rod and El Paso style earned him the nickname of “Daddy-O”. In addition to his formal studies, Wade learned from the example of several Austin artists, like William Lester, Robert Levers, Everett Spruce, and Charles Umlauf.〔 Upon graduation from UT, Wade earned a Masters in painting at the University of California at Berkeley. There the artist connected his border sensibilities to the developing “funk art” pioneered by Bay Area curator and art historian Peter Seltz.〔
