CONTACT US SKU#: 123000 US Shipping $60 + insurance. BIOGRAPHY: Robert Broderson was born in West Haven, Connecticut on July 6, 1920 and died in Independence, Virginia on March 12, 1992. He was a painter for forty-five years from the time he entered Duke University after WWII, to his last years in his studio in Independence overlooking the New River.Broderson served in the Air Force from 1942 to 1945, traveling to Africa, Sicily, England and France. In 1947, with the help of the G.I. Bill, Broderson enrolled as a twenty-seven-year-old freshman at Duke University in Durham, North Carolina. In his sophomore year at Duke, Broderson began the work in painting that would be his life.After he graduated from Duke, he received an M.F.A. from State University of Iowa. He then returned to Duke where he taught classes in drawing and painting for twelve years. He was an Associate Professor of Art when he left Duke after receiving a Guggenheim Fellowship in 1964. Broderson also taught at North Carolina State University in Raleigh from 1967 to 1968 and at the Skowhegan School of Painting and Sculpture in Maine during the summer of 1967. After the 1960's, Broderson gave up teaching and devoted his life to painting.Highlights of Broderson's career include the Guggenheim and Ford Foundation Grants and the induction into the American Academy of Arts and Letters. He had shows at the Whitney, the Museum of Modern Art, the Metropolitan, and he was represented by the Catherine Viviano Gallery, which also represented the German Expressionist, Max Beckmann, and other great American Abstract Expressionists.As a painter, Broderson worked mainly with oils; however, in his later years he began experimenting with acrylics. Broderson's work began in black and white. The black was oil, India ink, pastel, or pen; the white was painted, left bare, or scratched off with a penknife. Broderson studied shades of black and white, brown, and gray for decades, and off and on through experiments with color. In his later years, he moved into strikingly discordant colors of oil pastel. In between is a vast body of work, which testifies to the fertility of his creative imagination.Broderson was a figurative painter, concerned with human and other figures. He sometimes invented new creatures in his work; often, a menagerie of people and the animals seemed to pose the perennial questions: where do we come from, where do we go?He studied all the varieties of human experience and expression. The people in his paintings, as he said, were not real people. He worked on many canvases at once and never hesitated to rework what seemed finished. He hated dating his work or titling, and often covered an entire wall with sheets randomly cut from a roll and worked on them all at once. He peopled whole worlds. He painted nearly every day for forty-five years.2006 will be remembered as a watershed year in the rediscovery of Robert Broderson, who died in 1993.

Robert Broderson North Carolina, Connecticut, (1920 - 1992) Harlequins ink wash on paper signed upper right. EX Catherine Viviano Gallery, NYC Biography from the Archives of askART: Biography from Boca Raton Museum of Art Robert Broderson was born July 6, 1920 in West Haven, Connecticut. He died in Independence, Virginia on March 12, 1992. He began painting as an older student attending Duke University on the G.I. Bill after World War II. After he graduated from Duke in 1950, he continued painting and studied printmaking with Mauricio Lasansky at the State University of Iowa, where he received an M.F.A. in 1952. Broderson then returned to Duke where he taught classes in drawing and painting for twelve years and became an Associate Professor of Art. He left Duke in 1964 after receiving a Guggenheim Fellowship*. Broderson also taught at North Carolina State in Raleigh in 1967-68, and at the Skowhegan School* of Painting and Sculpture in Maine during the summer of 1967. After the 1960s, Broderson gave up teaching and devoted himself full-time to painting. Broderson was a figurative painter, concerned with human and other figures. His subjects, as he said, "always tend more toward the imaginative than the real." The people in his paintings are not real people; the landscapes do not exist in nature.
