Full Bio
Brad Robson is a Sydney-born painter and muralist recognised internationally for his bold, expressive approach to contemporary painting. His works have been exhibited across Europe, the UK, the US, and Australia, establishing him as one of the most dynamic artists of his generation.
Robson’s practice moves fluidly between the studio and the street. On canvas, he dismantles and reconstructs images — portraits, cultural figures, and fractured street scenes — through a process of layering, erasure, and deconstruction. In his murals, often spanning six stories high, this same urgency explodes at scale, transforming walls in New York, Berlin, and Sydney’s Inner West into landmark works of public art.
Whether in intimate paintings or monumental murals, Robson’s work strips away cliché and reasserts painting as alive, unpredictable, and uncompromising. His pieces continue to inspire audiences worldwide, while ongoing projects and commissions extend his impact as a leading Australian contemporary artist.
