	Gaston Lachaise
		Born in Paris, artistic prodigy Gaston Lachaise was using his father's woodworking tools to make carvings before he was old enough to attend school.
		Lachaise soon gave up his place at the Académie Nationale des Beaux-Arts to earn money and in 1906 moved to Boston to be with Nagle.
		Using Isabel as his inspiration and model, Lachaise created pieces whose sexuality and erotic presence pushed the boundaries of nude figuration.

	Lore Degenstein Gallery -"Gaston Lachaise"
		Gaston Lachaise was a sculptor of life found in portraits and metaphorical nudes that proclaim his love of the voluptuous celebration of human existence.
		Lachaise invoked in his sculpture, "the Goddess I am searching to express in all things," which he eventually found in his wife Isabel whom he had met in 1902 and eventually married in 1917.
		The Gaston Lachaise Foundation through the auspices of the Salander O'Reilly Galleries in New York has brought to the Lore Degenstein Gallery the opportunity to show thirty-nine small bronze sculptures--portraits and figures--along with drawings from the artist's oeuvre.

		Working in Paris during the early twentieth century, Gaston Lachaise found his lifelong muse in the ample figure of Isabel Dutaud Nagle, an American woman ten years his senior who was then married.
		It is remarkable that during the first fifteen years of Lachaise's mature career (1906—21), when he was developing an individual style, he was also employed as full-time assistant to two noted academic sculptors: Henry Hudson Kitson in Boston (1906—12) and Paul Manship in New York (1913—21).
		Because of Lachaise's ever-precarious financial situation, the piece was not cast in bronze until 1927, in anticipation of his forthcoming exhibition at Brummer Gallery, New York, in February—March 1928.

		The female nude, which declares the vitality of the female form - a comment on the history of art from the cave era to the present - appears throughout his career, and is prominently focused in a group of small bronzes.
		His "Elevation of 1912" sculpture in the collection of the Whitney Museum of American Art and its subsequent study, "Torso of Elevation," on view in Susquehanna's exhibition, are a seminal work for Lachaise and the model for his subsequent sculptures which utilize the female figure to express the dynamism of existence.
		The Gaston Lachaise Foundation through the auspices of the Salander O'Reilly Galleries in New York has brought to the Lore Degenstein Gallery the opportunity to show 39 small bronze sculptures - portraits and figures - along with drawings from the artist's oeuvre.

		Lachaise alone among the sculptors of this generation is the one whom it is not ridiculous to cite in connection with Michelangelo.
		Lachaise, above all other sculptors since the Renaissance, is the interpreter of maturity.
		In the American sculpture of his period he is pre-eminent, the only artist in the sculptural medium who, through both the quality and the copiousness of his production, comes in on the level of the great European masters and sustains serious comparison with their best efforts.

		Lachaise voit en elle «la muse » ; celle-ci devient tout l’univers de Lachaise qui n’aura de désir que de la rejoindre et qui abandonne les cours de l’école des beaux-arts et entre dans l’atelier de Lalique afin d’y gagner le prix de son voyage aux USA.
		Lachaise est un des derniers portraitistes, car a quelques exception près, le genre disparaît de la pratique sculpturale pour passer dans le domaine de la photographie.
		Lachaise, se situe au niveau des grands maîtres européens de la période par un travail créatif et inventif mais il n’en reste pas moins inclassable.

		But as a celebration of the male body, it is also a discreet reference to Crane's homosexuality.
		Lachaise befriended Crane in 1923, when both were contributing to the avant-garde arts journal the Dial.
		Lachaise evokes the exuberant side of the Crane's personality; by one account he had an "annihilating sense of humor." But the alcoholic Crane also battled depression throughout his life and committed suicide in 1932.
