	Jacques Lipchitz, The First Cubist Sculptor
		Jacques Lipchitz (1891-1973) is recognised as the most significant Cubist sculptor of the twentieth century.
		Taking nothing but one or two maquettes, Lipchitz successfully rebuilt his career and became recognised as the grand old man of Cubism and a pioneer in a new cross-cultural view of art - he was one of the first to suggest a dialogue between outdoor monumental sculpture and its surrounding environment or architecture.
		While Lipchitz’s huge contribution to twentieth-century sculpture cannot be doubted, little has been written on his career as a whole.

	Jacques Lipchitz (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
		Jacques Lipchitz (1891-1973), one of the most acclaimed and innovative sculptors of the twentieth century, had a longstanding connection with Philadelphia, where his work can be seen in the Museum, opposite City Hall, along the Schuylkill River, as well as at The Barnes Foundation in Merion.
		Lipchitz is perhaps best known for the Cubist work he made in Paris in the 1910s, and the Museum owns several important examples, including Sailor with Guitar (1914) and Woman with Braid (1914), both conceived during a trip to Spain in the company of the Mexican painter Diego Rivera.
		During and after the Second World War Lipchitz tried to give artistic expression to the turbulence and suffering of the preceding decade by modeling a number of mythological and biblical groups that are characterized by Baroque pathos and highly expressive gestures.

	The Sculpture of Jacques Lipchitz
		This is the second of a two-volume catalogue raisonné of the work of Jacques Lipchitz, one of the greatest sculptors of the twentieth century.
		Lipchitz's reputation as one of the masters of modern sculpture has long been based on the great Cubist carvings and bronzes of 1915–25 and on the experimental "transparents" of 1925–30.
		In contrast to the large scale, public commissions, Lipchitz created the thematic "series" sculptures, which are a unique feature from the second half of his working life.

	The Chosen Son
		Lipchitz was popular with Philadelphian as well as national audiences when he appeared as a regular guest on a television program hosted by Rainey.
		Lipchitz's monumental public works — the museum provides a map to the three major ones in Philadelphia — are characterized by bulging, roiling forms, often uplifted on a narrow base.
		The young Lipchitz was playful and clever in his experiments as one of the few analytic cubist sculptors, already possessing that ability to represent substance while simultaneously negating it.
