This biography from the Archives of AskART:
|  Born in Newark, New Jersey, Robert Birmelin became a professor of fine
arts at Queens College in New York, and is known for paintings that
magnify through texture the realism of nature.
He earned his
BA in 1956 and his MFA in 1960 from Yale School of Art and Architecture
and also studied at Cooper Union and the Skowhegan School of Painting
and Sculpture. In 1960, he earned a Fulbright Scholarship, which
took him to the Slade School of Art in London.
He settled in New York City. Over the years, he has had over fifty
one-man exhibitions. His work is in 37 public collections
including the Metropoliltan Museum of Art, Museum of Modern Art,
Hirshhorn Museum and Brooklyn Museum.
