Artist
Robert De Niro Sr.
Painting
Robert De Niro Sr. was an American abstract painter active in the postwar period. Working primarily in oil on canvas, he developed a gestural, non-representational language influenced by the New York School's emphasis on spontaneous mark-making and color field composition. Based in New York, his work participated in the broader postwar turn toward abstraction that defined American modernism in the mid-twentieth century.
