Robert J. Freiman

1917-91

Robert J. Freiman (1917–91) was a founding member (1945) of the
Artists Association of Nantucket. One of his portraits hung in an early AAN
exhibition, mounted in 1995.

“From the 1930s through 1981, Robert Freiman’s vivid colors, strong and fluid line, and sensitive choice of subject brought the world around him, that silent world in which he was forced to live, alive and moving, ringing with the sounds of his imagination, onto his canvas. His palette was wild, reflective of his zany and eccentric life style.” — Rene LaPierre, 2007
