Robert Adams (5 October 1917 – 5 April 1984) was an English sculptor and designer.
Whilst not widely known outside of artistic circles, he was nonetheless regarded as one of the foremost sculptors of his generation.
In a critical review of a retrospective mounted by the Gimpel Fils gallery in London in 1993, Brian Glasser of Time Out magazine described Adams as "the neglected genius of post-war British sculpture", a sentiment echoed by Tim Hilton in the Sunday Independent, who ranked Adams' work above that of his contemporaries, Ken Armitage, Reg Butler, Lynn Chadwick and Bernard Meadows.
