Tom Torluemke
Tom Torluemke (born, 1959 in Chicago, Illinois) is an Indiana based, contemporary American artist. His practice spans 30 years and includes works in painting, drawing, sculpture and installations in a variety of mediums. He is known for his powerful, no holds barred approach to subject matter relating to socio-political, ethical and humanistic themes.
==Early life==
Torluemke was born in Chicago and grew up in Chicago’s Northwest Side. He is the only child of Paul Arnold Torluemke and Betty Lou Millsey Torluemke, O’Donnell. Paul Torluemke came from a dark and violent past and worked as a bartender, truck driver and most notably as a magician’s assistant to Wesley Whitehouse and his biggest claim to fame was the (non-credited) invention of the stiff rope trick for Whitehouse and an appearance on The Ed Sullivan Show.
As a child, Tom Torluemke grew up in a dysfunctional and alcoholic environment. He lived with his parents downstairs from his grandparents and Great Uncle Fred Stegmann who was deaf and mute. Despite his disability, Stegmann was one of the more functional people in the house. Torluemke attributes his life as an artist to him. They spent quite a bit of time together when Torluemke was young. Stegmann did not do sign language, when they were together they would draw pictures to each other of what they wanted to do together. It was at this time that Torluemke discovered how powerful visual communication could be.
