Are all Curtis Jeré sculptures signed?

1 Answer
Are all Curtis Jeré sculptures signed?
Yes, all Curtis Jeré sculptures are signed. The renowned metalwork company, which trades under a pseudonym for the design team of Curtis Freiler and Jerry Fels, uses the shortened name "C. Jeré" when signing pieces. The signature can typically be found on the underside or back of one of the sculptures beside a copyright symbol.

Though the name Curtis Jeré is familiar to many as the maker of ebullient and eccentric modern design from the 1960s and ‘70s, relatively few are aware that it's a pseudonym. Together, the two created some of the most striking and vivid furnishings and decorative objects of their era, from sculptures and dynamically framed mirrors, to lighting and wall decorations.

The work of Curtis Jeré displays a sense of playfulness and curiosity, while drawing on inspirations and themes that include flowers, discs, geometric forms and animal figures. Freiler and Fels had a masterful ability to work with different materials, such as patinated brass and brilliant chrome.
