About

Enjoy this exciting opportunity to acquaint yourself with the artist, his influences, and techniques utilized in the creation of these whimsical and remarkable paintings. 

"My ongoing body of work involves the visual interpretation of clichés, euphemisms, and idioms"-Robert Deyber

 

Robert Deyber is an American artist, born and raised in Greenwich, Connecticut, Deyber began drawing at an early age. Art was his escape from an otherwise complicated world, and it offered him the freedom to travel and study in Perugia and Milan, Italy. Deyber’s artistic roots hail from the Surrealist movement, and he counts Salvador Dalí, René Magritte, native painter Henri Rousseau, the colorists Henri Matisse, Marc Chagall and Andy Warhol among his primary influences. His artwork is ripe with surprise and humor. Each painting a visual rendering of a clever turn on a common phrase. 

Deyber’s delighted collectors number in the thousands, transcending all traditional boundaries. Private collectors and corporate collectors can be found throughout the United States and across Europe and Asia, and include many in the entertainment industry, from independent film producers, well-known screenwriters, and designers. After singer-songwriter Tom Petty and his wife Dana began collecting his work, Petty commissioned Deyber for the artwork of his new album, "Highway Companion." 

“My goal is to take something common and elevate it to the uncommon and create theater, an unfamiliar and unexplored scene”-Robert Deyber

 

In 2006, Deyber exhibited his work at the New York International Art Expo, gaining significant attention from dozens of galleries to represent his work. He chooses Martin Lawrence Galleries as his exclusive representative, and its network of nine galleries across the country has been offering Deyber's artworks ever since.

Over the last decade, Robert Deyber has created a broad range of works and enormous recognition including being selected as a featured artist in the Quarterly Publication “New American Paintings."

 Martin Lawrence Galleries located in New Orleans is proud to unveil new and original painting’s as well as hand-signed limited edition works of art by contemporary artist Robert Deyber. This is a rare opportunity to meet a one-of-a-kind artist and acquire his latest creations.
