ROBERT KOBAYASHI

Susan Inglett Gallery is pleased to present Robert Kobayashi (1925-2015) in his second exhibition with the Gallery. Paint and Tin represents a focused survey of works by the Soho outlier artist, who transformed painting and tin into pointillist pictures and sculptures. The show will run from 16 March – 15...

The year before his retirement from MoMA in 1978, Kobayashi bought a building with his wife, Kate Keller Kobayashi, on Elizabeth Street in Little Italy. Taking over an existing butcher shop, the space assumed various guises, ultimately settling into its role as gallery operating under the moniker, Moe’s Meat Market. Avoiding commercial art settings, Kobayashi preferred to present his pieces at Moe’s Meat Market, and by 2009, the space served exclusively to exhibit his own work
