Gordon Chandler
GORDON CHANDLER b. 1953, Springfield, MA American sculptor Gordon Chandler first studied sculpture at Maine’s Skowhegan School of Painting & Sculpture.

In 1976, he founded W&P Builders for the manufacture of welded steel woodstoves. Renowned for his work with salvaged metal, Chandler has exhibited his sculpture and functional art across the country, including nearly yearly participation in Chicago’s Sculpture, Objects, Functional Art Exhibition since 1997.
