| Born in St. Paul, Minnesota, Paul Manship became a leading influence in
contemporary sculpture from the 1920s to the end of World War II.
His work was "distinguished by their simplified and polychromatic
forms, clean sinuous lines, slender curves, and lyrical surfaces"
(Reynolds 241). His subjects often hearkened back to ancient or
classical themes and his style, emphasizing simple lines, combined
Greek and Oriental influences as well as Art Deco that was so popular
in the 192 (showing 500 of 4763 characters). |
