Georges Robin

Georges Robin (1904-1928), also known as Jorj Robin, was a sculptor and designer from Nantes.

Robin was a member of the Breton nationalist art movement Seiz Breur, working at the magazine "Kornog", founded by the movement's leader René-Yves Creston. He created sculptures and embroidery designs for the workshop "Nadoziou" (needles) based in Nantes.

With other members of Seiz Breur he took part in the founding of the Nantes Circle Celtic, lending his design studio for its classes in the Breton language. He also created a project for a Breton language choir. [René-Yves Creston, Paul Ladmirault - "Jorj Robin skulter vrezon, e vuhez, e ober.
