Robert Lederman Art

b. 1966

Robert Lederman is a New York street artist, printmaker and art activist who attended NYU and Pratt Institute. He is the President of A.R.T.I.S.T. (Artists Response To Illegal State Tactics), a group dedicated to First Amendment advocacy for street artists. Lederman has won four Federal lawsuits about artists’ free speech rights and the right to protest. He is perhaps best known as the artist who painted hundreds of satirical portraits of NYC Mayor Rudolph Giuliani. Giuliani had Lederman arrested, but never convicted, more than 40 times between 1994 and 2000. The Giuliani portraits appeared thousands of times in the media during the Giuliani era and were a constant subject of controversy during those years. His successful lawsuits made it legal to sell art on the street without a license, in NYC Parks without a permit and to protest without a permit on the steps of the U.S. Capitol.

Please expect framing time between 3-5 weeks. Robert Lederman has been very vocal about the rights of art vendors selling goods in SoHo. He founded A.R.T.I.S.T. (Artists' Response To Illegal State Tactics) in 1993 in order to fight the "legal and political struggle for full First Amendment protection involving the creation, display and sale of art on NYC streets and in Parks." The Brooklyn-born Mr. Lederman was 12 when he sold his first art, portraits of movie stars, outside Dubrow's deli on Kings Highway; he used the proceeds to buy monster movies on 8-millimeter film (he wanted to be a director).
