About the Item

Susan Manspeizer Untitled (red planks), 1988 , mixed media sculpture h. 27 w. 35 d. 12 in. signed and dated Artist statement -Susan Manspeizer As a sculptor, I am continuously striving to bring the two-dimensional painted stroke out into our three-dimensional space. Through layering of my material, volume is created that allows the viewer to participate in the emotional content of my work. My content deals with the multiple feelings which we experience daily, as they, too, are layered down within us. Whether they are uplifting, fragile, celebratory, cautious or energized, we as humans are continually balancing our emotions, in our everyday life. The gesture of my strokes captures the emotional qualities of life. my work suggests an intimacy and tactile quality. My background of painting and drawing is solid in a traditional sense, but personally, I've taken the gesture of the human figure and created more intimate shapes. Regardless of one's own spoken language, my personal visual language of life's emotions, can be understood by all, through dialogue and reflection of the painted stroke in space.

Ward Bennett for Brickel Black Ash Scissor Lounge Chair, Red Wool Bouclé, 1984
By Ward Bennett
Located in Brooklyn, NY
Ward Bennett for Brickel Assoc. black Ash Scissor Lounge Chair, Red Wool Bouclé, 1984, New York. Black lacquered ash, red wool upholstery, metal tags to each. Ward Bennett’s story is a remarkable one. His career began at age 13, when he quit school to work in the garment district in New York City. At 15, he designed his first clothing collection; at 16 he left for Europe, where he continued working on fashion design. While in Europe, he attended art schools in Florence and Paris, but he was mostly self-taught, with skills that ranged from illustrating, sculpting, and jewelry-making to furniture, interior, and home design. “I learn from people,” he once said, referencing a long line of influences, including Hattie Carnegie, Hans Hoffman, and Georgia O’Keeffe. Bennett eventually settled back in New York, where his reputation earned him some of the day’s most affluent clients: David Rockefeller and Chase Manhattan Bank, Tiffany & Co., Sasaki, Italian industrialist Gianni Agnelli, Rolling Stone founder Jann Wenner. Another—former President Lyndon Baines Johnson—asked Bennett to design a chair for his presidential library that would be “a cross between a barroom chair and a courtroom chair...
