  • Charles Bein (1891-1966): Graduate and Professor, Tulane School of Architecture--Belatedly
    Charles Bein (1891-1966): Graduate and Professor, Tulane School of Architecture--Belatedly Acknowledged Two Tulane graduates live in Charlottesville where they are longtime friends: James Leslie Kelly of New Orleans, who graduated in engineering at Tulane in 1954, later acquiring his PhD at LSU in Chemical Engineering and Roulhac Bunkley Toledano (Newcomb 1960) who studied art and architectural history under Alfred Moir along with painting and printmaking under Ida Kohlmayer and James Steg. Recently Kelly, a relative of New Orleans native, Charles Bein, yet another Tulane graduate and a professor at the Architecture School, inherited a number of Bein’s paintings and an extensive collection of scrapbooks and newspaper clippings about Bein and his successful career in the arts. This mass of art and manuscript material, as well as Mallard and Seigneuret furniture from Bein’s Bay Saint Louis, Mississippi residence along with the Tulane connection, captivated me when I saw them. Subsequently, Jim Kelly showed me the handsome Mexican silver service that had been in Bein’s house, reminiscent of the work developed and popularized by Bein’s friend William Spratling. News clipping with articles on Bein by his good friends William Spratling and Lyle Saxon revealed that Bein had gone to Mexico with Spratling, so well known as the man who revitalized and transformed the silver tradition among the Indians at Taxco, Mexico. More clippings elucidating the amazing life of the architect and artist Charles Bein sent me to Tulane Architecture School, the Louisiana Rare Book Collection and the Southeast Architectural Archives where little information was available beyond the architecture school’s publication Talk About Architecture and a web 1 site partially based on that information.
