Peter Robert Keil grew up in a working-class neighborhood of Berlin.

In 1954 the East Berlin-based painter Otto Nagel became his mentor sharing with him skills and painting techniques. In 1954 he began an apprenticeship as an artist metal worker. 1959 and 1961 he studied at the University of Arts in Berlin. When the Berlin Wall was built he lost contact with his mentor Otto Nagel.

During his time in Mallorca, he met with Joan Miró in his studio several times. Throughout the 1960s Keil established studios in Paris, London, Berlin and in the US.
