Mario Andres Robinson Brings Agape to Bed-Stuy

Considered a "Living Master" by The Art Renewal Center, Robinson was selected by The Artist's Magazine as one of the top 20 realists under the age of 40

On Sunday, February 17, Restoration Plaza’s Skylight Gallery debuted the masterful works of Mario Andres Robinson.

The exhibit is entitled “Agape,” which in Christian theology means the love of God for humankind. This love for humanity is shown throughout Robinson’s work in his use of Realism in painting intimate and powerful portraits, close-ups of people in urban and bucolic scenes.

Considered a “Living Master” by The Art Renewal Center, Robinson was selected by The Artist’s Magazine as one of the top 20 realists under the age of 40. His finished works bear a close affinity to the masters of the realist tradition, Andrew Wyeth and Thomas Eakins.
