About the Item

Signed, titled, and dated in ink on base verso. Unique sculpture created using the lost wax process. This piece is 7 1/2" high x 12" wide x 3 1/2" deep. Robert Cook was born in Boston in 1921. He studied with George Demetrios, a classical sculptor. During WWII he served in Europe as an engineer making maps and models. After the war he stayed in Paris to study with Marcel Gaumont at L’Academie des Beaux Arts. In 1948 he moved to Rome. He is an innovator in the “lost wax” process of casting, creating larger sculptures than had previously been possible. He has a number of major public sculptures in New York, Boston, Philadelphia, Saudi Arabia, Rome, Italy and Canberra, Australia. His work, “Dinoceras” is in New York on Park Avenue and 51st Street. His works are in the Victoria and Albert Museum, The British Museum, the Hirshhorn Collection, the Whitney Museum and the Mobile Museum of Art. He draws inspiration for his sculptures from dance, theater, sports, and animals, creating a remarkable body of work over the past seventy years.
