I WORK FROM A PLACE IN THE MIND THAT I DISCOVERED WHERE REALITY,MEMORY, IMAGINATION AND THE DREAM WORLD MEET.---Arthur Robins 1984
Arthur Robins, who has lived in New York for the last thirty years, has shown his work in as varied of places as the streets of New York to the John McEnroe Gallery in Soho. In 1993 Robins was one of the founding members of A.R.T.I.S.T., a group that successfully litigated a Federal landmark case extending the First Amendment right of free speech to artists and fine art (selling art on New York streets had been banned). Robins’ “pool art” has been much admired by top players and has been collected by pool and billiard players around the world. Arthur’s art, in addition to pool images, resides in collections in over 50 countries, in both private and public collections.
I work in the following mediums: Oils, Acrylics, water color, gouache, oil pastel, chalk pastel,charcoal, pencil, inks, wood,welded steel, clay,other sculptural mediums, as well as music (drums, keyboard, guitar), writing, video and martial arts. I also have been involved in acting and comedy. Painting is my major focus.
I was born in Brooklyn, NY and lived there till almost 5-then lived in Allentown Pa till 17. I went to Pratt Institute for Art and stayed in NYC for 30 years. Lived in California from 2001 to 2003, then back to NYC-this time Queens. Now i live in a huge house with a gigantic art studio in Pa.
I have sold my art to over 8000 people worldwide. My work resides in Major art collections including the Museum of the City of New York, and the Metropolitan Museum of Art in NYC.
