Seymour Robins Retrospective Exhibit Opens this October12:58PM / Wednesday, September 17, 2008
The Sheffield Historical Society will present a unique opportunity to view the creative mind of a prolific and talented graphic designer, Seymour Robins, in an upcoming exhibit of the paper sculptures he created from the mid-1950s through 1998.
Over 75 hanging or standing paper sculpture creations, which include designs for corporate clients, museums and UNICEF, as well as his own yearly holiday sculptures, will be featured in this retrospective exhibit, Paper Sculptures & Other Works by Seymour "Rob" Robins, scheduled for October 4-November 2, 2008. A reception for the artist will be held on Saturday, October 18, from 1 to 4 pm.
Seymour “Rob” Robins lived on Boardman Street for almost 40 years in the old Wilcox barn, which he completely renovated over the years into his home and studio. His career followed his military service and, beginning in the early 1950’s, he was one of Manhattan’s most prolific and talented graphic and package designers. Rob’s last commission for a paper sculpture was from MOMA in 1998, when his macular degeneration limited his vision. Rob, a lifelong student of vision, was also a major contributor to the field of perception studies at Princeton University.
The Society recently accepted a gift of his collection of his paper sculptures and other graphic design materials. Several of Rob’s sculptures are part of the permanent collection of the Cooper-Hewitt Museum in New York City.
Rescued and restored by the Society in the early part of this decade, The Old Stone Store is the Society's latest acquisition to its seven building campus. Dating from 1834 it is the oldest existing retail building in the town, and now functions as the Society's gift shop and exhibition space. The Old Stone Store is open weekends, Saturday 10-3 and Sunday 11-3, or by appointment. It is located on the Green in Sheffield.
