Robert Freimark received a Master of Fine Arts from Cranbrook Academy of Art in 1951 and in the same year had his first solo exhibition at Circle Gallery in Detroit. His first solo show in New York City was at Rockefeller Center in 1954. Freimark has worked in many media including painting, drawing, printmaking, tapestry and film. Throughout his career his work has focused on issues of social protest; a 1991 retrospective at Gavilan College in Gilroy, California was titled "Forty Years of Conflict - Within and Without," and a 2000 retrospective held at the Mexican Heritage Plaza in San Jose, California was titled "The Art of Dissent." In 2003 he premiered his film, "Los Desaparecidos" (The Disappeared Ones), a documentary based on the stories of women who survived the murderous kidnappings perpetrated by the Argentinean government in the 1970s. The film was shown in twenty international film festivals and received seven awards, including the World Film Festival Houston Award.

Freimark's awards include a fellowship from Art Interests, Inc. to study with Max Weber (1954), a Ford Foundation Artist in Residence Grant (1965), and a Western Interstate Commission for Higher Education Grant (1967).
