. . . Sculptor Robert Graham dies in California at 70


Reuters – A sculpture titled 'Torso' by Robert Graham on Rodeo Drive



LOS ANGELES (Reuters) – Robert Graham, a California sculptor whose works were incorporated into civic monuments including the Franklin Delano Roosevelt Memorial in Washington, D.C., has died at the age of 70.

Graham, who also created monuments to boxer Joe Louis and jazz legends Charlie Parker and Duke Ellington, died on Saturday at Santa Monica UCLA Medical Center and Orthopaedic Hospital.

At his side were his wife, Oscar-winning actress Anjelica Huston, and other members of his family.

"Robert was an amazing sculptor who forever shaped the presence of sculpture art throughout California and the world," California Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger said in a statement. "His work was truly influential and he will forever remain an icon in this state."

Graham, born in Mexico City, lived much of his life in California and gained fame for designing a ceremonial gateway for the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum for the 1984 Olympics.

According to the governor's office, his work has been the subject of more than 80 solo exhibitions.

Graham, who had been ailing, died Saturday at the Santa Monica UCLA Medical Center and Orthopaedic Hospital

with his family at his side, including his wife, Academy Award-winning actress Anjelica Huston, the governor's office confirmed.

[here's a Photographic Document regarding]

I tried my hand at creating something with clay some years back and came up with this. And I think its also quite fitting to these forums, so I'm "showing it off".



Guess you could say ET has arrived... or at least part of one at any rate. *grins*

I like that. Very simple, stylish and sophisticated, without being 'vulgar'. Yes, I'm one of those people who has loved 'Art Deco' for far longer than many others have.

I have on of those ones too. It was done in 1848, it came from the Schuck side of the family. Evenso, the glass was damaged a bit in a corner, it was appraised at $275 in 1982. It should be worth more now, so Moon keep yours in a safe place, because it is in better condition, then mine.
