Robin F. Williams
Robin Williams was born in 1984 in Columbus, Ohio, and began making oil paintings before she had learned to sign her name. Soon after abandoning her aspirations of becoming a mermaid, she decided instead to become an artist when she grew up. Since then, she’s spent most of her time painting pictures, playing softball, and cooking. She’s a recent graduate of the Rhode Island School of Design and now resides in Brooklyn, New York.
Graduating with a BFA in painting from the Rhode Island School of Design in 2006, Williams has shown with some of New York’s top galleries, including Space 414, Jack the Pelican Presents and Claire Oliver Gallery. She is represented by P.P.O.W. which recently moved from the East Village to Chelsea. P.P.O.W. has an amazing roster of represented artists, including personal favorites George Boorujy, Bo Bartlett, and Julie Heffernan. They also represent the Estate of David Wojnarowicz, and have been instrumental in the dialog surrounding the National Portrait Gallery‘s recent removal of Fire in My Belly from their Hide/Seek exhibition. Williams is in excellent company, and her first solo show, “Rescue Party,” opening January 27th, is chock full of work that proves that she deserves to be there.
