Born 1960
Lives and works in Brooklyn, NY
I have recently participated in four Contemporary Art Festivals in Provence France. Recent shows in Brooklyn were at Sideshow, Calico, Giacobetti Paul, and Industrious Brooklyn. I have also shown work in New York at Barbara Greene, Gale Martin, and 55 Mercer galleries; and in Chicago, Philadelphia, New Haven, and Washington D.C.I'm in the collection of the Coupelouzos Museum in Athens Greece. My work is a painterly Colorfield Abstraction; painterly and gestural, but also light, spacious, and calm. This might seem to be counter intuitive but I see this in the paintings of Olitzky, Rothko, Dzubas and Diebenkorn; a similar feel for abstract compositions of space with a painterly sensibility.

Waves by Robert Melzmuf

The Wave paintings are a painterly Colorfield abstraction; light, spacious, and calm. So, painterly, of the hand, but depicting a volume of space, which seems counter intuitive but I see this in Colorfield painters, particularly Olitzky, Rothko, Dzubas, and Diebenkorn
