Mixed media on paper, framed. Featuring a portrait. Signed with initials and attr. Robert Loughlin (American, 1949-2011) on the lower left corner. 28.5 x 19.5 cm (11.2 x 7.7 inches). Frame size: 42 x 34.5 cm (16.5 x 13.6 inches). Robert Loughlin was born in Alameda, California, on a Naval base. At an early age, Loughlin became interested in culture and spent many hours of his childhood listening to the family's FM radio. He left school after the sixth grade in order to take care of his brothers and sisters. During the late 1960s, Robert had already established a love for design and for being a free-thinker. He lived in a Geodesic Dome in Canyon, California, and was part of the Berkeley Riots. In the 1970s, Robert opened two stores in San Francisco, California, specializing in American Industrial Design. During this period, Robert was a pioneer in Mid-Century Design and produced its first show in the United States. Robert was also co-owner of the first punk supply store in San Francisco, and became lead singer in his no- wave band The Decorators along with the artist Arch Connelly. In 1980, Robert relocated to Miami Beach, Florida, and opened a design store. It was during this period that Robert began painting. In the early 80s, Robert moved to New York City and became part of the burgeoning art and social scene. Robert opened the Executive Gallery on E. 10th Street and Arch Connelly served as gallery director. Robert developed a reputation and became someone whom high society turned to in order to uniquely decorate a home with haute design. Clients of Robert included Andy Warhol, Jean-Michel Basquiat and Robert Mapplethorpe. PROVENANCE: Southern Ontario Estate
