Art Deco Sculpture by Paul Lobel RKO Roxy Theatre Rockefeller Center
Located in Rochester, NY
Bronze art deco ram sculpture by Paul A. Lobel from the RKO Roxy Theater, Rockefeller Center, New York. Hand wrought. Provenance: RKO, Roxy Center Theatre; Mr. Eugene Lee Schoen; Mr. Neal Prince & Mr. Herbert Wade Hemphill Jr.; Mr. Neal Prince; The Trust of the above; Heritage Auctions. Presented by Joseph Dasta Antiques Paul Lobel (1899 - 1983): The accomplishments of Paul A. Lobel, industrial designer, metalsmith, sculptor and cartoonist/illustrator, may be viewed as the quintessential American success story. Born in Romania, at the turn of the century, he emigrated to the United States while an infant, and, from humble beginnings on Manhattan’s Lower East Side, grew up to attain a one-man show in Paris in 1925, win two awards at the International Exposition of Decorative Arts in Paris in 1932, be the subject of two exhibitions at the American Museum of Art and The Museum of Modern Art in New York City. He also founded an innovative jewelry and metals studio/shop in New York’s Greenwich Village. Furthermore, his contemporaries regarded him with awe and almost everything he attempted came to fruition. In the summer of 1926 Lobel exhibited 35 works, including drawings, etchings, paintings, metalwork and sculpture, in a one-man show at the Grande Librairie Universelle in Paris. During the next year, he toured London, Rome, Florence, Rotterdam, Brussels and Berlin, then, broke, returned to America where he again rented desk space and tried to resume his advertising career. But he was haunted by the modern design that he had been exposed to in Paris. So, after borrowing money to open a metalwork studio on Lexington Avenue, he sought out architect Eugene Schoen, an enthusiast of modern design, whom he had formerly been introduced to by Boardman Robinson. Schoen was in the process of opening a gallery devoted to showing the work of designers and craftsmen imbued with the spirit of modernism...

TWO CHAIRS Surrealist Bronze Sculpture Unique 1964 DANISH ARTIST Sven Dalsgaard
By Sven Dalsgaard
Located in Rancho Santa Fe, CA
This unique, small bronze sculpture by Sven Dalsgaard, dated 1964, transforms an ordinary object into something psychologically charged and quietly ambiguous. Standing just 11.25 inches tall, the form recalls a chair lifted into an improbable vertical stance. Its narrow seat and elongated legs deny any practical use. What Dalsgaard presents is not furniture but the idea of a chair, reduced to structure and presence rather than function. The bronze surface is worked rather than refined, with visible traces of the artist’s hand that catch the light unevenly. This rough handling introduces a sense of vitality into an otherwise rigid form. The exaggerated proportions give the sculpture a totem-like quality, almost figurative in character, as if the chair itself has assumed an upright posture. As the viewer moves around it, the open spaces within the structure become as important as the solid bronze, creating a shifting balance between mass and void. There is a clear surrealist element in this transformation. The chair remains immediately recognizable, yet it no longer belongs to the world of ordinary experience. By displacing scale and function, Dalsgaard creates a subtle tension between familiarity and estrangement. The sculpture suggests presence without an occupant and purpose without use, encouraging psychological rather than literal interpretation. This aligns with a restrained, Northern strain of Surrealism, one shaped by austerity and understatement rather than spectacle. Signed and dated on the base, the sculpture dates from a period when Dalsgaard increasingly explored the symbolic potential of everyday forms. Modest in scale but rich in implication, it demonstrates how a common object can be quietly reimagined as a vessel for reflection, ambiguity, and poetic abstraction. A unique bronze sculpture. Born in Vorup near Randers, Sven Dalsgaard was self-taught as a painter. His earliest paintings are Naturalistic but around 1934 he was inspired by Wassily Kandinsky and Paul Klee to paint more Abstract works. He debuted at the Kunstnernes Efterårsudstilling in 1943. Inspired by Marcel Duchamp, he embarked on Surrealism in the 1940s but moved into a simpler, more stylized approach in the 1950s, producing tall thin sculptures...

Picasso Madoura Ceramic A.R. 496 Face Number 203
Located in Boca Raton, FL
Pablo Picasso A.R. 496 Face Number 203 1963 10” round Edition of 150 White earthenware clay, decoration in engobe and enamel under partial brushed glaze, grey patina Ramie 496 is a Madoura ceramic that one rarely sees come on the market. The photo you see here is the actual piece that you will receive. Most sellers online post using stock photos that don’t necessarily match exactly to the piece you receive. This particular piece is pristine: there are no nicks, bruises or scratches of any kind. Be careful when buying from others – the pieces sometimes have nicks or scratches. The Certificate of Authenticity comes with this piece. We have sold over 3300 pieces with all positive reviews. We are located in the USA. When you buy from a foreign seller on 1stdibs, you have to consider the problems of getting the piece through Customs. There are often delays and considerable fees to pay in order to import the item. When purchasing from us, we ship the same day and you receive it via FedEx the next day, no problems or hassles. When you purchase from an auction house, you pay a buyer’s premium of anywhere from 23% to 28% over the “hammer price”. So when you “win” an auction for $20,000, the actual price paid is more like $25,000. By contrast, when purchasing from us, the price agreed to is the price paid by the buyer, no hidden fees. When you purchase from an auction house, you pay the packing and shipping fees, which are usually exorbitant. By contrast, when purchasing from us, the price includes packing and shipping. When you purchase from an auction house, the sale is final. If you receive the piece and are not 100% satisfied with it, there is nothing you can do about it. You are stuck with it. By contrast, when purchasing from us, the buyer can determine if they want to keep it. If not, the buyer returns to piece to us for full refund, and we pay the shipping both ways! The prices of Picasso Madoura Ceramics have been on fire lately (no pun intended). The major auction houses – Sotheby’s, Christie’s and Phillips – have now been regularly holding Picasso Madoura Ceramic auctions...
