Robert Steiner has had a highly distinguished career in a number of painting genres, including landscape, wildlife, photorealism and conceptual realism. In his paintings and drawings, he communicates his sense of wonder and appreciation for the unspeakable beauty of the natural world. He has always marveled at the minute detail of the universe as well as its vast expanses.
In his conceptual realist pieces, Steiner focuses on the relationship of human beings to each other and to the world. Artworks such as Expulsion and Culmination II – a History Painting also explore the history of Western culture.
