Lobel Modern, Inc
About Lobel Modern, Inc
Lobel Modern was established by Evan Lobel in NYC in 1998. His vision was to promote important vintage mid-20th century design with a focus on exceptional craftsmanship and materials. Lobel Modern has become a critical resource for designers, architects, and collectors around the world seeking high-end 20th century modern furniture, lighting, art, and decorative objects. Featured artists include Karl Springer, Gabriella Crespi, Philip and Kelvin LaVerne, Paul Evans, Vladamir Kagan, Tommi Parzinger, Edward Wormley, Harvey Probber, Milo Baughman and Anzolo Fuga. Our emphasis is on furniture that crosses over into art.
Evan Lobel values scholarship and research. He is a specialist in the designers Lobel Modern carries.
In 2003 Baruch College did a retrospective on Harvey Probber and named Evan Lobel the Exhibition Coordinator. He worked directly with the Probber family.
After becoming fascinated with the exuberant Modernist designs of the important 1950’s glass artist Anzolo Fuga, Evan Lobel co-published the book “Anzolo Fuga, Murano Glass Artist: Designs for A.V.E.M.” The book was written by Rosa Barovier-Mentasi, one of the world’s most important glass scholars, who spent over 2 years doing research with full access to the A.V.E.M. archive.
For over a decade Karl Springer has been a focus of Lobel Modern. Architectural Digest (10/03 “Rediscovering Karl Springer”) called Evan Lobel the "New York dealer who has been instrumental in putting Springer back on the map."to

Philip and Kelvin LaVerne "La Famille" Sculpture Art Installation 1970s (Signed)
By Philip and Kelvin LaVerne
Located in New York, NY
One-of-a-kind life size art installation, "La Famille", in solid cast bronze with father and mother and daughter holding a patinated bronze and pewter table top, incorporating an abstract design with colorful hand-painted enamels, by Philip and Kelvin LaVerne, American 1970s (signed twice: “Philip+Kelvin LaVerne” on edge of table top, and “Philip Kelvin LaVerne” in colored part of table top). The solid bronze sculptures were attained via lost wax process which is extremely difficult with works of this size and complexity. As stated by Kelvin LaVerne discussing this unique work, “We only made one of these. “La Famille” is a sculpture of a typical family in which their love for each other is expressed in a quiet and subtle manner rather than a picture of them embracing.” It’s the celebration of the a family which enjoys every moment of being together. The LaVernes did several works celebrating love, humanity, and those who bring joy to others. This work was a unique art installation which resided in their gallery. A photo of of this work in the original gallery is shown in this listing.
Reference:
”Philip and Kelvin LaVerne, Sculpture II”, paper catalog published in the 1960’s, this sculpture art installation is shown on page 40 in a black and white photo of the LaVerne Seymour Gallery in the 1970’s with the caption that reads “Dedicated to the highest achievement of mastery, the three-dimensional beauty of bronze and pewter created in limited editions of Collector’s Pieces and Museum Items.”
