Pittsburgh Sculptor Thaddeus Mosley Dies at 99, Leaving a Monumental Public Legacy

Renowned Pittsburgh sculptor Thaddeus G. Mosley Jr., famed for monumental salvaged‑wood abstractions and an enduring array of public artworks, died at 99 after hospice care. A self‑taught artist who built a late‑career international profile (including a Carnegie International show and representation by Karma), Mosley’s work adorns sites from the Hill District to CMU and the August Wilson African American Cultural Center, with ongoing exhibitions and a forthcoming Arts Landing installation that extend his influential legacy.
