Martin Lawrence Galleries Las Vegas, at Caesars Palace, to unveil new original paintings and limited edition works by renowned artist Robert Deyber.

About

America's largest gallery, located in the Forum Shops, offers collectors a unique opportunity to get acquainted with the artist-his influences, techniques, and whimsy.

Robert Deyber's artwork is full of surprises. Every canvas is reveling in his sense of humor, his uniquely visual rendering of a clever turn on a common phrase. Yet despite his sense of fun Robert Deyber is a seriously skilled and talented painter. He is endlessly intrigued by visual imaginings that reside in the realm between reality and fantasy and presents these imaginings brilliantly.

Born and raised in Greenwich, Connecticut, Deyber began drawing at an early age. Art was a necessary means of escape from an otherwise complicated world, one in which he set his mind free to visit the most remote places—a wheat field in South Dakota, the dunes of the Gobi desert, the moons of Jupiter—all within easy reach of his spacious imagination.

Deyber moves in and out of visual themes and storylines seamlessly, creating imagery through a combination of highly stylized composition, light, and contrasting colors. He utilizes all three to draw the viewer into his works without overpowering or confusing.

Deyber is a 'visual raconteur'—a storyteller with a paintbrush, his mind's eye planted deep within the subconscious. His artistic roots hail from the Surrealist movement, Rene Magritte and Salvador Dalí are among his heroes. While many of Deyber's paintings contain elements derived from dreams created out of the unpredictable imagery found in the subconscious, the extraterrestrial flowers have more in common with the worlds of alternate natural history imagined by Alexis Rockman or Walton Ford, and the visual rendition of current phraseology and popular culture are more in the tradition of the Pop Art movement. It is, in the end, the undecided tone between sincerity and irony that makes Robert Deyber's artwork distinctly contemporary, his visual vocabulary distinctly his own, but with a worldwide audience.

Deyber collectors transcend all boundaries. Private and corporate collectors throughout the United States, as well as throughout Europe and Asia, have acquired Deyber's paintings. His work has strong appeal and continues to be collected by many in the entertainment industry, including independent film producers, well-known screenwriters, designers, and musicians. Tom Petty commissioned Deyber to create the cover for the rock star's 'Highway Companion' album.

His career has taken him all over the world-from the Umbria region of Italy to San Francisco to New York before moving to Boston. He currently resides in Connecticut and is exclusively represented by Martin Lawrence Galleries.

MLG is the only place in Las Vegas where residents and visitors alike can come face-to-face with original and unique works by 20th-century masters including Pablo Picasso, Marc Chagall, Andy Warhol, Keith Haring, Erté, Joan Miró and more. Where Salvador Dali's largest oil painting in history is displayed alongside a complete suite of Marilyn's by Andy Warhol. MLG's 27,000 square-foot showcase in the Forum Shops at Caesars Palace is filled with the most exceptional fine art from the last 100 years. Museum-quality treasures are available not just to admire, but to acquire...truly something special for every taste and budget.
