JOHN RISLEY METAL LOUNGE CHAIR
Est: $300 - $500
JOHN RISLEY METAL LOUNGE CHAIR American, late 20th century, metalwork. Open, slipper chair design in a female form. About the artist: Born in 1919 in Waterville, Maine, Professor John H. Risley modestly referred to himself as a "Yankee tinker". He was, of course, much more: an artist who received national prizes and more than two dozen regional prizes for sculptural work that graced collections ranging from IBM's to those of private individuals. During his 33 years at Wesleyan, he participated in dozens of exhibitions throughout the United States. "Risley's art," wrote William Ward, professor of theater and design emeritus, "represents a continual seeking, exploring and analyzing of nature."
