- Robert Kipniss (born Brooklyn, New York, February 1, 1931) is an award-winning American painter and printmaker whose work has been shown in solo exhibitions at galleries and museums worldwide since 1951. He is a Royal Academician (retired), an elected member of the National Academy of Design, New York, and holds two honorary doctorates. His work is held by more than eighty-eight museums and other institutions, including The Metropolitan Museum of Art, The Art Institute of Chicago, The Detroit Institute of Arts, the Achenbach Foundation for Graphic Arts, Fine Arts Museums of San Francisco, the Whitney Museum of American Art, the Smithsonian American Art Museum, the Victoria and Albert Museum, London, and many others. "For over five decades, Robert Kipniss has prolifically produced paintings, prints, and drawings of remarkable beauty, eloquence, and refinement...he has gained international recognition for his distinctly American images of spacious landscapes and smalltown vistas, as well as quiet interiors and intimate still lifes. Following in the footsteps of such esteemed predecessors as Paul Cézanne (1839-1906) and Giorgio Morandi (1890-1964), the artist has faithfully investigated and reexamined these familiar, humble subjects...He has never felt confined or restricted by their narrow range; rather, he is liberated within it. To be sure, Kipniss's art has always clearly bespoken his independent spirit and lifelong embrace of solitude."— Daniel Piersol, curator of Seen In Solitude: Robert Kipniss Prints from the James F. White Collection, New Orleans Museum of Art. (en)
