Paul Robinson, born 1964 in Liverpool, has exhibited in New York, Paris and London and has a career spanning over 27 years.

 

Whatever the content and context of his paintings he is inspired by colour, composition and motif. From banal everyday environments to landscapes Robinson composes works full of vigour and empathy to the subject matter. Capturing an essence of the object. Robinson describes his work as "colloquial, the elements of the painting are in a conversation with each other"

 

'An Englishman in New York'

Press Release, The Agora Gallery, New York : 2006

 

"The works of British artist Paul Robinson transform the banal environs of still-lives and interiors into enticing images created in a style that recalls the painterly inventions of Abstract Expressionists. Symbolic images resonate as vessels of discourse with connotations beyond the superficial. Robinson presents his audience with a visual puzzle, space is flattened, and objects and surrounding elements are given the same treatment and authority. His images are playful and loosely painted, joyous pastels and hearty reds are offset with areas of black. Viewing Robinson's paintings is an act of discovery; from his configurations everyday objects, such as a chair, plant, wineglass or bathtub, come forth from the schematic of shapes and color. Robinson studied Fine Art at Sunderland Polytechnic and went on to earn a Postgraduate Certificate of Education to pursue a career in teaching. Having worked previously as an illustrator, Graphic designer and industrial printer, Robinson chose to concentrate on his fine arts career

 

Paul Robinson now lives in France and continues to paint.
