Tony Robbin is a founding member of the Pattern and Decoration art movement. Robbin has been exploring the depiction of four-dimensional objects and spatial configurations with paintings and sculptures for the past 35 years. The resulting work appears as complex layers of geometric forms animated by patterns of color.
Robbin's work is based upon scientific research in the fields of geometry, mathematics and physics. He is the author of three books: Fourfield: Computers, Art and the 4th Dimension (1992), Engineering A New Architecture (1996) and Shadows of Reality: The Fourth Dimension in Relativity, Cubism, and Modern Thought (2006). He has lectured to professional organizations and university departments of art, physics, mathematics, computer science, architecture, and engineering in the United States, in Europe and Japan.
