Biography from AskART:
| The following is submitted by the artist of Manlius, New York:
Hall Groat, an American Impressionist painter, is a native of Syracuse, New York, where he studied painting, worked towards his MFA, and began a life-long career as an artist. Groat has dedicated his entire full-time professional career, spanning over twenty years, to pursuing his passion with art. The Berkshire Museum was the first of several museums worldwide to acquire a major Groat work. The Museum purchased the prize winner, Megalopolis, one of the largest of Groat's railroad paintings.
The United Nations awarded Groat with the honor of having a series of paintings for their stamp reproduction. The series of ten paintings is in the permanent collections of United Nations Philatelic Museum in Geneva, Switzerland. His paintings are included in the collections of notables such as Jimmy Carter, the late Jacob Javits, Henry Kissinger, Fred Perry, Sir Michael Tippett, Christopher Keane, and the late Arthur Fiedler. Ambassadors among countless others have also invested in his work.
In recent years, Groat has turned his attention to the corporate world with emphasis on banks, churches, brokerage houses, and insurance companies. Groat's work is included in numerous corporate collections throughout the world today and in the permanent collections of the Everson Museum of Art, Syracuse, NY; The Berkshire Museum, Pittsfield, MA; The United Nations Philatelic Museum, Geneva, Switzerland; and Syracuse University, Syracuse, NY. Clement Greenberg, one of the nation's foremost art critics, once stated that Hall Groat was an artist who could make it and he was proved correct.
