About the Item

Walking the moon is an early piece by Lindsay Daen and one of the most important. Lindsay Daen was born in Dunedin, New Zealand in 1923 of Australian parents. From 1945 to 1948 Daen studied at East Sydney Technical School and the School of Arts in Adelaide, South Australia, where he concentrated in sculpture. His early ceramic sculptures were influenced by the aboriginal drawings and Melanesian carvings exhibited at the Sydney Art Museum. At the age of 25, he was elected into the Royal Art Society in Sydney. In 1953, Daen moved to New Orleans, Louisiana, and settled into the French Quarter. There his career flourished with shows at the New Orleans Museum of Art, the Houston Museum of Fine Arts and the Whitney Museum of American Art in New York City. Following the exhibition of his work at the Whitney, he accepted an invitation by the Puerto Rican Government in 1955 to bring the first major show of sculpture to the island. For the next 40 years, he resided in Old San Juan. He cast primarily in bronze at Codina Art Foundry in Madrid. Major works include La Rogativa (San Juan), The Journeyer (Philadelphia), Queen Adelaide (Adelaide), and Jemmy Morril and the Brolgas (Brisbane). His late works and installations are located in prominent public spaces and include Juan Bobo and the Basket, Joven con Pajaros (both located in San Juan) and The Lovers installed in the main plaza in the town of Isabela, Puerto Rico. During the last 17 years of his life, Daen collaborated and worked with his third wife Laura Ross Daen.
