About the artist: Robert Kipniss was born in New York City in 1931. His love of art was quickly fostered and nurtured, in large part due to his parents, both of whom were also artists. He began honing his craft at New York City’s acclaimed Art Students League in 1947. During his college years, Kipniss wavered between focusing his attention on an education in literature and one in fine art. He earned a Bachelor’s degree in English Literature from the University of Iowa in 1952 and earned a Master of Fine Arts in Painting and Art History from the same school in 1954. Kipniss’ first recognition from the art community came before he finished his studies. In 1951, he won an art competition in New York City that earned him his first one-person exhibition. Numerous solo shows followed throughout the United States and beyond. It was in the 1960s that Kipniss began creating graphic works, producing numerous drypoints, lithographs and intaglio works – mezzotints in particular. The subjects of Kipniss’ works include austere limbs of trees in autumn and winter, spare, modest houses with simple shapes, a rolling countryside dotted with the occasional home, tree or shrub, and shadowy interior scenes. Though the architecture and furnishings hint at the presence of human life, Kipniss’ works are devoid of people. They artfully explore the effects of light and shadow in muted tones, often in shades of white, gray, pale yellow, and dusty green. Though at face value they may simply appear to explore the simple subjects they feature, Kipniss strives to capture something deeper. Robert Kipniss work is held in numerous public and private collections worldwide.. Awards 1976 New York City’s Ralphi Fabri Prize at the National Academy of Design 1978 The Charles M.
