# ´After´ Curtis Jeré, Brass and Chrome Ribbon Sculpture
This is from our latest Fine Art collection, a local man who is downsizing, having collected for more than 40 years!
Most of his collection was acquired in Scottsdale and Houston from 1980 to 2010 when he moved to Mexico.
This works is identified as created by Curtis Jere, 36.5" (93cm) tall and 20.5" (53cm) wide. It sits on a marble base but is NOT SIGNED. So we use the term "attributed to" or "after" Curtis Jere.
Here is what Wikipedia has to say about the artist:
C. Jeré (or Curtis Jeré, often seen without the accent) is a metalwork company known for wall sculptures and household accessories. C. Jeré works range from representational to highly abstract, and are made and marketed by the corporation Artisan House.
Curtis Jeré is a compound nom de plume of founding artists Curtis Freiler and Jerry Fels, who combined parts of their own names to create the C. Jeré signature.
According to Modernism magazine, which interviewed Jerry Fels shortly before his death in October 2008, the company was founded in 1963 by Fels and his brother-in-law Curtis (Kurt) Freiler. Freiler was the production chief and Fels was head of design. Their goal was to produce "gallery-quality art for the masses."[1] Prior to the establishment of Artisan House, the partners built a costume jewelry business, selling work under the names Renoir and Matisse, which employed around 300 people at one point.[2] Kurt and Jerry sold Artisan House in 1972. Kurt Freiler died July 22, 2013, at the age of 103.[3]
