  • The Philip I. and Muriel M. Berman Papers: Collection I
    ² ² ² The Philip I. and Muriel M. Berman Papers: Collection I Held by Special Collections, Linderman Library Lehigh University, Bethlehem, Pennsylvania 18015 Call No.: SC MS 095 Berman Papers Page 1 of 154 rev. 05/24/2006 Biographical Sketch Philip Isaac Berman and Muriel Mallin Berman, husband and wife – the “amazing Bermans” as they were often called – worked together as a team throughout the fifty-five years of their marriage, in raising their family, managing their businesses, making frequent trips abroad, collecting art, and planning philanthropy. This biographical sketch is therefore an account, not of one person alone, but of two together, who devoted a great deal of their astonishing energy and considerable fortune to philanthropy and public service, in their home city of Allentown, their home state of Pennsylvania, and around the world, especially in Israel. Philip Berman was born on June 28, 1915, in Pennsburg, Pennsylvania, son of Joseph and Dora (Feingold) Berman. In 1932 he enrolled at Ursinus College in Collegeville, Pennsylvania, but in 1933 returned home to join the family trucking business, from which he built his fortune. On September 23, 1942, he married Muriel Mallin. In the same week, however, he also joined the U.S. Marine Corps, with which he served in the South Pacific during World War II. Muriel Mallin Berman was born on June 21 1914, in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, daughter of Solomon and Dora (Cooperman) Mallin. From The Pennsylvania State College of Optometry in Philadelphia she earned her doctorate in 1938 and maintained her license in optometry until 1984. In 1945 Philip Berman was relieved of active duty with the Marine Corps.

  • Lynn Chadwick out of the Shadows Unseen Sculpture of the 1960S
    LYNN CHADWICK OUT OF THE SHADOWS UNSEEN SCULPTURE OF THE 1960S 1 INTRODUCTION ince my childhood in Africa I have been fascinated and stimulated by Lynn SChadwick’s work. I was drawn both by the imagery and the tangible making process which for the first time enabled my child’s mind to respond to and connect with modern sculpture in a spontaneous way. I was moved by the strange animalistic figures and intrigued by the lines fanning across their surfaces. I could see that the lines were structural but also loved the way they appeared to energise the forms they described. I remember scrutinising photographs of Lynn’s sculptures in books and catalogues. Sometimes the same piece appeared in two books but illustrated from different angles which gave me a better understanding of how it was constructed. The connection in my mind was simple. I loved skeletons and bones of all kinds and morbidly collected dead animals that had dried out in the sun, the skin shrinking tightly over the bones beneath. These mummified remains were somehow more redolent of their struggle for life than if they were alive, furred and feathered and to me, Lynn’s sculpture was animated by an equal vivacity. His structures seemed a natural and logical way to make an object. Around me I could see other structures that had a similar economy of means; my grandmother’s wire egg basket, the tissue paper and bamboo kites I built and the pole and mud constructions of the African houses and granaries. This fascination gave me a deep empathy with Lynn’s working method and may eventually have contributed to the success of my relationship with him, casting his work for over twenty years.

  • 'Reforming Academicians', Sculptors of the Royal Academy of Arts, C
    ‘Reforming Academicians’, Sculptors of the Royal Academy of Arts, c.1948-1959 by Melanie Veasey Doctoral Thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the award of Doctor of Philosophy of Loughborough University, September 2018. © Melanie Veasey 2018. For Martin The virtue of the Royal Academy today is that it is a body of men freer than many from the insidious pressures of fashion, who stand somewhat apart from the new and already too powerful ‘establishment’.1 John Rothenstein (1966) 1 Rothenstein, John. Brave Day Hideous Night. London: Hamish Hamilton Ltd., 1966, 216. Abstract Page 7 Abstract Post-war sculpture created by members of the Royal Academy of Arts was seemingly marginalised by Keynesian state patronage which privileged a new generation of avant-garde sculptors. This thesis considers whether selected Academicians (Siegfried Charoux, Frank Dobson, Maurice Lambert, Alfred Machin, John Skeaping and Charles Wheeler) variously engaged with pedagogy, community, exhibition practice and sculpture for the state, to access ascendant state patronage. Chapter One, ‘The Post-war Expansion of State Patronage’, investigates the existing and shifting parameters of patronage of the visual arts and specifically analyses how this was manifest through innovative temporary sculpture exhibitions. Chapter Two, ‘The Royal Academy Sculpture School’, examines the reasons why the Academicians maintained a conventional fine arts programme of study, in contrast to that of industrial design imposed by Government upon state art institutions for reasons of economic contribution. This chapter also analyses the role of the art-Master including the influence of émigré teachers, prospects for women sculpture students and the post-war scarcity of resources which inspired the use of new materials and techniques.

  • ROBERT ADAMS (British, 1917-1984)
    ROBERT ADAMS (British, 1917-1984) “I am concerned with energy, a physical property inherent in metal, [and] in contrasts between linear forces and masses, between solid and open areas … the aim is stability and movement in one form.” (R. Adams, 1966, quoted in A. Grieve, 1992, pp. 109-111) Robert Adams was born in Northampton, England, in October 1917. He has been called “the neglected genius of post-war British sculpture” by critics. In 1937, Adams began attending evening classes in life drawing and painting at the Northampton School of Art. Some of Adam’s first-ever sculptures were also exhibited in London between 1942 and 1944 as part of a series of art shows for artists working in the Civil Defence, which Adams joined during the Second World War. He followed this with his first one-man exhibition at Gimpel Fils Gallery, London, in 1947, before starting a 10-year teaching career in 1949 at the Central School of Art and Design in London. It was during this time that Adams connected with a group of abstract painters – importantly Victor Pasmore, Adrian Heath and Kenneth and Mary Martin – finding a mutual interest in Constructivist aesthetics and in capturing movement. In 1948, Adams’ stylistic move towards abstraction was further developed when he visited Paris and seeing the sculpture of Pablo Picasso, Julio Gonzales, Constantine Brancusi and Henry Laurens. As such, Adams’ affiliation with his fellow English carvers, such as Henry Moore and Barbara Hepworth, extended only as far as an initial desire to carve in stone and wood. Unlike his contemporaries, Adams did not appear to show much interest in the exploration of the human form or its relationship to the landscape.

  • Lynn Chadwick - Biography
    Lynn Chadwick - Biography Born in London in 1914, Chadwick studied architecture and worked as a designer before emerging in the 1950’s, after his war service as a pilot, as a sculptor with a distinctive and dramatic style. He began to make constructions and mobiles of metal and glass in 1945. Though he came to sculpture late, he was selected to show two major works at the Festival of Britain in London in 1951 and was thereby launched onto the international stage as one of a new generation of British sculptors shown at the Venice Biennale in 1952. He had one man shows early in his career at Gimplel Fils, London in 1950 and 1952 and in, 1956, cemented his prominence when he was awarded the principal prize, ahead of Giacometti, at the Venice Biennale, where a retrospective exhibition of his work was shown. By this time, his work was being bought by numerous major public and private collections both in America and Europe, and exhibited at major galleries regularly. His work unmistakably caught the post-war mood, along with contemporaries such as Eduardo Paolozzi. Throughout the 1950’s Chadwick, whose work was largely abstract but with suggestions of the human figure, was prominent amongst that group of metal sculptors who followed in the steps of Henry Moore. During the 1960’s his work became more block-like and monumental, much of it designed to be seen in the open. For much of his life, the work seemed to have been more highly regarded abroad than in his native Britain, and from the early 1960s onwards he received a steady flow of public commissions and private sales in America and Europe, particularly in Italy.
