Robert Charles Gruppe:
Being third generation of the legendary Gruppe´ dynasty of artists, Robert Gruppe´ is rediscovering the traditions of the Cape Ann School of painting with assured brushstrokes and vibrant colors. He has exhibited for more than 30 years in Gloucester’s distinguished North Shore Art Association, the Rockport Art Association and the Meriden (Connecticut) Art Association, winning numerous awards along the way. Wintering in Naples he transforms the glowing tropical views into a Florida Impressionism that is squarely his own and much appreciated at major shows and by some of the nation’s leading galleries.
