Clement Meadmore
Clement Meadmore was an American minimalist abstract artist, born in 1929, in Melbourne, Australia. He originally studied aeronautical engineering at the Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology, in Australia. After graduating in 1949, he designed furniture until 1953, when his first sculpture of welded steel was offered for sale. While still young, his work was highly regarded and he was awarded a number of exhibitions, including several one-person shows in Melbourne and Sydney, where he had lived since 1960.
Clement moved to New York, USA, in 1963, at the age of 34 years and later, became a United States citizen. With the exception of a year spent in Australia, as photo editor for Vogue magazine, he lived and worked in New York, for the remainder of his career. He passed away in April 2005, leaving behind an important legacy of elegant, gravity-defying sculptures, in many prestigious venues in the US, Japan and Mexico. The Meadmore Estate continues to have the open editions of his works in all size ranges, fabricated in the same way as he did, while he was alive.
