Frederick Weinberg (1915) American Fiber Glass Sculpture Light Swing Time.
Philadelphia based artist and industrial designer Frederic Weinberg produced and sold a wide variety of functional and decorative items under a company bearing his name. Though he is probably best known for his figural wire and fibreglass wall sculptures, he also produced retail fixtures, clocks, lamps and furniture for homes, institutions and businesses.
Frederic Weinberg is the PAFA-trained Philadelphia artist whose 1950s oeuvre — mostly sculpture, clocks, lamps and decorative displays for dozens of restaurants and retail businesses, based on his semi-abstract paintings — has recently become the obsession of in-the-know modern art collectors.
Chief among them: interior designer Ron Rowe and Barneys salesman Glenn Nadeau, who, with much help from 20th-century specialists at Mode Moderne, Renaissance Man, Vintage Modern and Rago Arts and Auction Center, transformed their circa-1955 rancher into a playful, stylized, livable, authentically mid-century space in which to showcase an extensive collection of Weinberg’s rarest works. Still, the pair — who are now seeking help from Philadelphians in researching the first-ever book about the artist — were careful not to create a Weinberg shrine.
Sculptures: Swing Time, 1950s, fiberglass wall light
Size: 37 x 42 x 4 1/2 in.
