Biography


Robert Strawbridge Grosvenor was born March 31, 1937 in New York City, New York.[1] He studied at the École des Beaux-Arts de Dijon [fr] in 1956; at the École nationale supérieure des arts décoratifs, Paris in 1957 and 1959; and at the University of Perugia in 1958.[1] In 1960, Grosvenor moved to Philadelphia.[1]

Grosvenor was one of the 10 artists that founded the cooperative Park Place Gallery in New York City, open from 1963 to 1967.[4][5] The other founders of the gallery included Mark di Suvero, Dean Fleming, Forrest Myers, Peter Forakis, Leo Valledor, Tamara Melcher, Tony Magar, and Edwin Ruda.[4][5]

In Grosvenor's work, he uses a mixture of industrial materials such as car body parts, plexiglass, stone, brick, concrete, and plastic.[6][3] His work has helped define minimalism and was included in the seminal group exhibitions, Primary Structures (Jewish Museum, 1966), and Minimal Art (Gemeentemuseum Den Haag, 1968).
