Robert Dickerson

Self-taught Australian artist Robert Dickerson was a professional boxer at the age of 16. In his early 20s he discovered his skill with art and became a prominent member of the Antipodeans art movement. Macabre figures with pained facial expressions were a primary subject in Robert Dickerson's artwork. By the time Dickerson was in his mid 30s, he had become an established full-time artist.

In 1956, artist Robert Dickerson had his first one man show at one of the Contemporary Art Society's exhibitions in Melbourne.
