The charming vintage set of decorative tiles or wall plaques depicts Modernist, artistic interpretations of traditional Folk Art and Country decor subjects - farm animals. Black and white chicken, red cockerel, and brown bull are wandering though stylized gardens filled with flowers and grasses; the animals and larger flowers are done in relief with sgraffito elements, adding tactile element to the plaques. The moody, complex blue backgrounds visually unify the set, adding a common element to each tile with just enough variation to emphasize the color palettes of individual animals. The tiles are clearly marked on the reverse, dating from 1986 to 1990; all 3 tiles are equipped with their original mounting hardware. We are offering a large ceramic decorative bowl, created by Phelan in 1950s-1960s, and his vase, a great example of Phelan's early work (1932), in separate listings. Linn Lovejoy Phelan (1906-1992) was a renowned American ceramic artist, who operated famous Rowantrees and Linwood Pottery in Maine. He studied art in Bevier School of Art of the Rochester Athenaeum and Mechanics Institute (now Rochester Institute of Technology) in Rochester, New York, in 1928, and received his BFA in Ceramic Art in Ohio State University, Columbus, Ohio, in 1932. While attending Ohio State University, Phelan took "Ceramic Art: Survey of the Field" class, taught by Arthur Baggs. After Phelan left the school, he corresponded with Baggs, and in late 1930s Phelan wrote to Baggs of his experiences in helping to start up what becomes Rowantrees Pottery of Blue Hill, Maine. Arthur E. Baggs (1886-1947) studied at Alfred University in 1903-1905 and 1910-1911 with Dr. Charles F. Binns, who was considered "the father of American ceramic art"; Baggs worked at Marblehead Pottery...

Vintage ceramic vessel or vase features pitcher shaped body with decorative handle. The lower half of the body is lightly faceted, resulting in octagonal outline when the vessel is viewed from above; the upper half has rounded form with lightly flared rim. The minimal handle is accented with tear or water drop shaped element on top. The vase is decorated with complex blue and white glaze with foaming effect; the free-flowing pattern of larger bubble elements adds tactile, textural quality to the unusual glaze. The vessel is signed by the artist on the bottom; same signature can be seen on the bowl in E. John Bullard Collection of Bates College Museum of Art. Provenance: the vessel was acquired at the arts, antiques, and Folk Art collector estate in Western New York state. Clara Katherine Nelson (1890–1984) was a renowned American cubist painter and ceramic artist. She attended the Rhode Island School of Design and taught at the Carnegie Institute in Pittsburgh. Nelson was invited by Charles Fergus Binns to teach painting and drawing at Alfred University at the School of Ceramics in 1920, replacing Marion Fosdick, who shifted to teaching modeling and pottery. Nelson worked with Binns and Fosdick to develop pioneering curriculum for functional ceramic education and started to work in pottery and ceramics herself; in 1927 they were joined by Charles Harder, who brought in the “New Bauhaus” aesthetic and studied with Lásló Moholoy-Nagy in Chicago. Fosdick, Harder and Nelson created the Ceramic Art curriculum throughout the 1930s and oversaw its transformation into Industrial Ceramic Design (from 1939–1951), and on into a more Bauhaus-inspired Ceramic Design (1951–1965). Nelson's students included Jane and Gordon Martz, Glidden Parker, Herb Cohen...

Striking art glass sculpture or paperweight features rounded form in clear glass, fully covered with reliefs of leaping fish; the underside of the paperweight is accented with a layer of dichroic glass, adding a striking multi-color shift to the piece, going from blue to teal green, and then to magenta pink. The flowing, dynamic relief depicts its wildlife subjects in concise, refined style, influenced by Art Deco and Swedish Grace, as well as Danish Modern styles. The sculpture is elevated on 3 small clear resin feet, adding a gap between the object and the surface it's displayed on and enhancing the visual effects of the dichroic color shift. The paperweight is signed and dated by the artist on the underside. Robert O. “Robin” Lehman, an internationally renowned Rochester-based glass artist and documentary filmmaker, studied painting and graphic arts during his college years. When he graduated, he studied musical composition with Nadia Boulanger in Paris and then worked with her for 10 years.

For his work, he has won more than 150 awards at most of the major film festivals in Cannes, Berlin, Chicago, Melbourne, San Francisco, New York, and Los Angeles.
