Robert G. Cox
From Mid-Century Avant-Garde to the Streets of New York
Recommended to study in America by abstract icons Mark Rothko and William Scott, Robert G. Cox arrived in New York in 1960, instantly dropping into the epicenter of the global art shift. Sharing a foundational studio with Super Realism pioneer Malcolm Morley, Cox spent the next fifty years quietly constructing an expansive, masterful body of work spanning geometric minimalism, optical illusion, luminous botanicals, and profound spiritual abstraction. Today, his complete estate portfolio is open to the public for the first time, offering private collectors and interior designers direct access to original mid-century and late-20th-century investment pieces.
Five Decades of Visionary Abstraction, Optics, and Spiritual Form.
History
A Life Intersecting Art History
Beyond the canvas, Robert G. Cox’s cultural footprint is massive. He filmed the first global documentary on the Dalai Lama (receiving a Congressional Medal for humanity), co-founded the 1980s New York Graffiti Art Movement alongside legends like Lady Pink and Crash, and was honored by New York City for his decades of radical art education.
