      Est: $1,000 - $1,500

      Armin Alfred Scheler (German/Louisiana, b. 1901), "Bird Form #1", bronze, unsigned, h. 30 in., w. 15 in., d. 15 1/2 in., cast concrete base, overall h. 64 in. Provenance: Dr. Gary Noel Ross; Paula Manship (1912-2006), Baton Rouge, LA; by descent to her niece Nadine Carter Russell (1943-2022), Baton Rouge, LA.Note: Armin Scheler was born in 1901 in Germany and attended the State Art School and the State Academy of Fine Arts in Munich, Germany. Following his studies, he moved to the United States where he worked in New York as a designer. He opened his own sculpture studio in 1936 in Rochelle, New York where he did freelance work as a sculptor. Scheler joined the Louisiana State University art faculty in 1942 and taught for nearly three decades. His public work includes architectural friezes for the Government Printing Office in Washington, D.C. and the Federal Building in New Orleans. His work has been exhibited worldwide including the Paris Exposition in 1937 and the Whitney Museum of American Art in 1940 and 1952. Contrary to Scheler’s public works, the lots offered here are abstract, with concrete bases and fluid bronze forms. The bronzes mimic stalagmites reaching skyward, while the negative spaces of the bases allow the works to feel simultaneously substantial and light.
