Peter Madsen, an a artist from Simi Valley, CA - creates "Long Arm of The Law"<br>Bronze Sculpture 17.5" tall x 19" wide. No damage or wear. It is dated 1991 and<br>is 13/24, weighs 30 pounds. Number 18/24 sold for 5K on ebay on May 3, 2015, so<br>the price is reasonable and realistic. It will be packed and shipped with<br>extreme care.<br><br>Article is from July 11, 1997 Byline: Patricia Hesselbach Daily News Staff<br>Writer`<br><br>``Good Medicine'' sits on top of the table where Peter Madsen sketches in<br>charcoal in his Simi Valley home. The small sculpture, one of many created by<br>Madsen at the height of a prolific artistic career, reminds him of his inner<br>strength and gives him courage to begin a new life. Known for his tightly<br>detailed bronzes depicting the American Indian and the cowboy, Madsen had<br>enjoyed measurable success in his field. An established and recognized artist<br>since 1986, he had received numerous awards. The Westinghouse Corp., the New<br>York Stock Exchange, Robert Duvall and Iron Eyes Cody purchased his work. The<br>Gene Autry Museum of Western Heritage put a collection of his bronzes on<br>permanent display. Madsen had nowhere to go but into the ranks of renowned<br>American artists. Then one day in May 1993, an accident completely altered the<br>life Madsen had so meticulously crafted. While enjoying his other great passion,<br>participating in a Western riding competition, the artist was thrown from his<br>horse. He sustained severe head trauma and brain damage. He fell into a deep,<br>three-month coma. Madsen awoke to begin a journey on a new trail, teaching his<br>body to move again. Modest movement in his left leg signaled the onset of his<br>recovery. The artist also uttered his first words since the accident. During a<br>nine-month hospital stay, followed by seven months in a transitional home<br>setting, Madsen started his remarkable re-education process. ``I'm being born<br>again,'' Madsen said, laughing as he recalled his first tremulous attempts to<br>write his ABCs. The sculptor admired for intricate human anatomical application<br>in his bronze figures had to relearn his own body parts. ``When he first began<br>to draw figures, he would leave off a right arm,'' said his wife, Vicki. She<br>said his drawings reflected his reality. He had to become reacquainted with his<br>right side before he could draw a right side. ``The first sign of artwork came<br>in 1996,'' said Vicki Madsen. For months, she had attempted to coax the artist<br>back to work. Each time she presented him with clay, he responded, ``I can't do<br>this right now.'' Then, one September day, a collection of artist friends paid<br>Madsen a visit. Talking about sculpting stirred something inside him. Someone<br>presented Madsen with a small piece of clay. He squeezed it and responded with a<br>huge smile. There is an ironic twist to the Peter Madsen story. Prior to his<br>injury, the artist had been sculpting the figure of a cowboy being thrown from<br>his horse. Four years later, Madsen has returned to work on the piece by way of<br>surrogate sculptor, Jean Cherie. ``He has the eyes and the vision. Jean Cherie<br>is his hands,'' said Vicki. ``Prophesy Fulfilled,'' like the emerging artist, is<br>a work in progress. Once solely dedicated to his realistic bronze work, Madsen<br>now finds creative expression in a more free-form bas-relief style of sculpture,<br>charcoal sketches and computer graphics. His computer generated designs will<br>soon grace greeting cards. Close friend and personal attendant, Patrick Grant,<br>saw the work turned out by Madsen and suggested ``Greetings from Eagle Vision.''<br>Postcards featuring photos of Madsen's bronzes will complement the collection.<br>Seldom is heard a discouraging word from this cowboy artist who pledges to make<br>his own way in life. Back in the saddle again, he is rebuilding weak muscles<br>through a structured therapeutic horseback riding program. When asked about his<br>attitude toward life since the accident, Madsen exuberantly replied, ``Go for<br>it!'' When asked what his former attitude toward life was, he again replied,<br>``Go for it

Signed Book The Sculpture and Drawing of Charles Umlauf (1911-1994). Estate fresh from a prominent Austin Texas Estate, guaranteed Authentic Signature I'm 100% positive. A little wear to dust jacket as shown, no issues with interior of book, lots of great photographs. Umlauf didn't hold book signings to the best of my knowledge, it's very rare to find a book signed by him. Charles Umlauf (July 17, 1911 – November 19, 1994) was an American sculptor and teacher who was born in South Haven, Michigan. His sculptures can be found in churches, numerous public institutions, outdoor locations, and museums, including the Houston Museum of Fine Arts, the Smithsonian Institution in Washington, D.C, and the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, as well as in many private collections. Umlauf received a number of accolades, including a Guggenheim Fellowship and a Ford Foundation Grant. In 1941 Umlauf accepted a position at the University of Texas School of Art in Austin, Texas, where he taught for 40 years. Artists teaching at UT included Loren Mozley, Everett Spruce, Kelly Fearing, Seymour Fogel, and William Lester. Umlauf retired as Professor Emeritus in 1981. In 1985, he and his wife Angeline Allen Umlauf gave their Austin home, Umlauf’s studio, and 168 sculptures to the City of Austin. Based on this gift and considerable community support, the UMLAUF Sculpture Garden and Museum was founded and opened its doors in 1991 as at 605 Azie Morton Road in Austin, Texas. The UMLAUF is a private–public partnership with the City of Austin. Contents 1 Early life 2 Work 3 Mentorship 4 Selected works 5 References 6 External links Early life Charles Umlauf was born in South Haven, Michigan, on a large farm where his family lived and worked. He was the sixth of eight children born to immigrant parents Christian Heinrich (Bavarian) and Charlotte Derouet (French-Alsatian). The Umlauf children were named Heinrich, Marie, Charlotte, Wilhelm, Edouard, Karl, Emelia, and Louis. The family moved frequently in search of work. The Umlauf family suffered from anti-German sentiment during the first World War. The family Americanized their names (Heinrich to Henry, Wilhelm to William, Karl to Charles) to avoid persecution in their Michigan town and schools. After enactment of the Espionage Act of 1917, Umlauf’s father was falsely accused of spying while working at an ammunition plant. Soon after, the windows were shattered in the family home. This treatment would influence the subjects and expression in Charles’ work. In 1918 the entire family relocated to Chicago in search of greater opportunities for work. Umlauf discovered sculpture early in his life, when he was a child, playing in the sand at Lake Michigan. He watched a sand artist on the beach, and subsequently sculpted a life-size sand sculpture of his own. Umlauf claimed that he knew at the age of ten that he was going to be a sculptor. At this age, he was living with his family in Chicago. In 1922, Christian Umlauf died, further impoverishing the family. Charlotte Umlauf died only 6 years later, leaving the children orphans and emotionally devastated. Charlotte had been a fervent supporter of artistic education for her children, spending a portion of their meager income on music lessons for Charles and his siblings. Work In 1918, when Charles was eight years old, the Umlauf family moved to Chicago. Charles and his brothers worked as caddies at Oak Park and Bryn Mawr Country Clubs. Charles was encouraged to pursue his artistic interests by his sister, Marie, who paid for her 11-year-old brother to attend weekend classes at the Art Institute of Chicago (AIC). He soon earned a scholarship for continued study. Umlauf was interested in carving and forming figures from an early age. Based on a small lion he molded in clay, Charles received his first commission of a full-sized lion in 1922, at age eleven. In 1929 Umlauf began three years of study with Albin Polasek at the AIC. He subsequently spent one year as an assistant to Lorado Taft at his Midway Studio before returning to the AIC where he remained until 1937. Those years saw a growth in Umlauf's interest in the more abstract sculptures being produced in Europe, and as a consequence, his own art became increasingly abstracted. From 1934 through 1941, Umlauf was employed by the WPA Federal Art Project, created during the Great Depression. He sculpted for several Federal projects, including two monumental sculptural heads for Merchandise Mart and sculptures for Cook County Hospital. His 1939 work War Mother caught the attention of Marion Koogler McNay and professors at the newly formed Art Department at the University of Texas at Austin. They offered him a position as Professor of Life Drawing and Sculpture and the Umlaufs permanently moved to Austin in 1943. Mentorship During his tenure at the University of Texas, Charles Umlauf taught many art students, including Farrah Fawcett. Fawcett, an art major, called Umlauf her "favorite professor" and they began a close mentoring relationship. Fawcett took classes and worked with Umlauf in his studio, as well as occasionally sitting for him as a muse. Her sculpture work is similar to Umlauf's in style. Work by Fawcett was exhibited at the UMLAUF in 2017 in the Mentoring a Muse exhibition.[1] Another of his pupils was Bob "Daddy-O" Wade, who studied at the University of Texas from 1961-65, and later became famous for his larger-than-life sized works inspired by Texan cowboy culture.

c.1910 15" Bergman Austrian Cold Painted Bronze Sparrow Hawk Sculpture on Stone Base Signed with Bergman mark as shown. 12" wingspan, 12" beak to tail. slight bend on the tip of each wing with some paint wear. Incredible, rare, imposing figure that will liven up anywhere it is. Very heavy, will be a challenging packing and shipping job that i'm confident I'm capable of. It will take me hours but it will be done right and get there how it leaves here. Franz Bergman was an Austrian entrepreneur best known for his Viennese foundry which produced many patina- and cold-painted bronze sculptures of figures, animals, Orientalist scenes, and mythological creatures. Bergman is often misidentified as a sculptor, but he himself was not the original artist for the works—rather, he hired many anonymous sculptors to execute his ideas. He signed many of the works produced by his foundry with the pseudonym Nam Greb, so as to conceal his name from the authorities and avoid penalties for immorality. Born in 1861 in Vienna, Austria, he initially inherited a bronze factory from his father and later opened his own foundry. Bergman died in 1936 in Vienna, Austria

c1915 22" Bronze Sculpture of Salome with John the Baptist's Head by Philipp<br>Modrow<br><br>A rare work from a rather obscure sculptor, this example captures the famous<br>Biblical scene of Salome with John the Baptist's head. Herod's second wife,<br>Herodias, originally the wife of his brother Philip, had her daughter Salome<br>dance before Herod and his entire court in hopes of manipulating him against<br>John the Baptist. John was outspoken in his reproach of Herod for taking his<br>brother's wife and Herodias wanted him executed for this, though Herod would not<br>comply. However, greatly pleased by her dancing and drunk with his guests, Herod<br>promised to give Salome anything she asked for, up to half of his kingdom.<br>Salome asked to have the head of John the Baptist on a plate, as he was<br>presently held in the king's prisons. Placed in an awkward position in front of<br>his court, he was forced to grant her request despite his own personal<br>objections. The scene is moving in it's exceptional rendering of Salome's<br>careless and selfish nature. She clutches her prize with a certain grotesque<br>pleasure, an unsettling image of one so led astray for the vengeance of her<br>mother to an empty and ugly result. Modrow has sculpted her ingeniously to be<br>equal parts beautiful and repulsive. She stands before a naturalistic rock<br>backdrop. The sculpture is signed on the right and impressed by the foundry on<br>the left. Philipp Modrow (German, 1882-1925) is documented in the E. Benezit<br>Dictionary of Artists (Gründ, Vol. IX, p. 1080) as being the student of Emil<br>Cauer Jr. and that he is noted for his 1923 sculpture "Monument to Spengler" in<br>Davos, where he died in December of 1925.

"Prelude-Trail of Tears," signed in the cast Fortunate Eagle (Adam Fortunate Eagle, a/k/a Adam Nordwall, Red Lake Chippewa, Minnesota, b.1929), dated 1988, numbered 1/ 24, bronze only: approx 13.5"h, 14"w, 9.5"d, wood base: 1.75"h, 45lbs. Nice large well cast low production bronze by an extremely interesting and gifted artist. Please excuse the bad pictures as I took them at storage because as much as I love this, it's really big. Adam Fortunate Eagle L.H.D. (born Adam Nordwall), hereditary member of the Red Lake Band of Chippewa Indians, is a Native American activist and was the principal organizer of the 1969–1971 Occupation of Alcatraz by "Indians of All Tribes". Early life Born in the missionary section of the Red Lake Indian Reservation in 1929, Nordwall was the son of a Swedish man and an Ojibwe woman. When he was five, his father died, leaving his mother no choice but to send him and four other children away to boarding school. He attended the Pipestone Indian School in Minnesota[1] and the Haskell Institute in Kansas, where he took advantage of the time to improve many skills that would help him later in life as well as escape the Great Depression, famine, and disease that was running rampant on reservations at the time. There he met his future wife, the Shoshone Indian Bobbie. California years After their marriage, the Nordwalls moved to the San Francisco Bay Area in 1951. Nordwall worked as a licensed termite inspector and by the late 1960s owned his own company in San Leandro, the First American Termite Company. Although living a comfortable life, Nordwall felt that he and his family needed to learn more about who they were as Native Americans. He became more involved in local Indian affairs and became chairman of the United Bay Area Council of American Indian Affairs. It was at this time that he proposed the takeover of Alcatraz. In 1968, at the Bay Area Italian-Americans' annual San Francisco reenactment of Columbus' landing in America, having successfully lobbied to have the Indians portrayed by genuine Indians rather than costumed Boy Scouts, Nordwall flicked the wig off Joe Cervetto, playing Columbus, with his ceremonial staff in a symbolic scalping. After he donated an 18-foot totem pole to the city of Livermore in 1969, the city shortened it before installing it in a park, and Nordwall placed a curse on their sewer system until they restored the cut off section. Nordwall began to seriously plan the takeover of Alcatraz, and he met with Richard Oakes, a local student activist, at a Halloween party at Tim Findley's house in 1969. He proposed the date of November 9 and Oakes agreed to get as many students as he could.[4] Nordwall took care of providing transportation to the island. However, on the date, none of the ships were there and the press were wary of the Indians all dressed up in their tribal wear. Nordwall found a captain who seemed interested in the events of the day and talked him into providing transportation. He agreed but said he would not dock on the island, to which Nordwall agreed.[5] Once near shore, Oakes seized the moment and jumped overboard, followed by a few of his fellow students. Nordwall stayed behind and watched as Oakes and his band struggled to reach the shore. The captain returned to shore a little while later.[6] Nordwall was not satisfied with just having been around the island and wanted to go back. Oakes and his fellow students were returned by the Coast Guard, and Nordwall asked if they wanted to try again that night. So once again Nordwall, Oakes and some two dozen other Indians set off for Alcatraz. As they approached, stormy weather and a watchdog caused the captain to become wary. Oakes and three women managed to get off, while Nordwall was left on the ship with the remaining Indians.[7] On the day of the actual takeover Nordwall was out of town, but on Thanksgiving he came riding across the bay standing on the prow of his ship exactly like George Washington.[8] Although he never lived on the island, Nordwall helped from the shores and was able to assist those on the island and keep the press reporting on the occupation while at the same time bringing to light the plight of the Native Americans. Nordwall was still active in Native American affairs after the Alcatraz occupation. He served mostly as a liaison between the Bay Area Council and the press. Nordwall later taught Native American studies at California State University, Hayward.[1] In September 1973, on his way to the International Conference of World Futures, he descended from the plane in Rome in full tribal regalia and claimed the country "by right of discovery" in the manner Columbus had claimed America. Invited for an audience with Pope Paul VI, instead of kissing the papal ring, he offered his own ringed hand in return; the Pope grinned and clasped his hand. Nordwall filed for bankruptcy and left the Bay Area in 1975 after his pest control business incurred fines for environmental code violations and underpayment of taxes. Writing and film He wrote "The Alcatraz Proclamation to the Great White Father and his People", which states that the goal of the occupiers was to create a center for Native American studies, an American Indian spiritual center, an Indian center of ecology, and a great Indian training school, none of which came to be on the island.[10] While the occupation of Alcatraz seemed a failure on the surface, the federal policy of termination of all tribes ended in 1971, and self-determination became the new policy. Many consider the Alcatraz occupation the beginning of the "Red Power" movement. His 2008 book Heart of the Rock is the story of that "invasion".[1] Fortunate Eagle performed the voice of Sitting Bull in the feature-length documentary Sitting Bull: A Stone in My Heart.[11] He is also the subject of a feature-length documentary called Contrary Warrior: The Life and Times of Adam Fortunate Eagle[11] and wrote a book on his experiences as an Indian boarding school titled Pipestone: My Life in An Indian Boarding School. His most recent work, Scalping Columbus, is a compilation of his own anecdotes. He is the father of poet nila northSun. Later life Nordwall received his Indian name Fortunate Eagle from a Crow Indian when he was 42.[1] He now lives on the Paiute-Shoshone Reservation, where his wife was born; he has built a roundhouse out of tires and other recycled materials.[1] In the 1980s he won awards for his sculpture; he also makes ceremonial pipes and headdresses, and in 1987 was jailed and tried for selling eagle feathers. His criminal trial ended in a hung jury but he was found guilty and fined in a civil trial. He is a ceremonial leader and leading statesman for his people and is heralded as one of the greatest Indians of his generation.
