In this event, you'll discover their magnificent Art Deco creations from the 1930s, which have long been the centerpieces of important Deco collections and exhibitions. This visually stunning program is your chance to get your own behind the scenes glimpse into Rose studio's noteworthy role in the design and production of famed decorative Deco metalwork.
As the grandson of Rose Iron Works founder, Bob has continued the family legacy into this century’s 20s. You won’t want to miss Bob's special presentation which also includes anecdotal gems related to the celebrated Art Deco pieces that were loaned to the recent blockbuster exhibition, The Jazz Age: American Style in the 1920s––including the iconic 1930 Muse with Violin Screen. In addition, Bob shares seldom seen drawings created by Paul Feher, Rose Iron Work’s resident artist in the 1930s. He also leads us on a tour of Rose Iron Work’s headquarters, which is in itself a museum displaying several hundred examples of the firm’s top-notch design. Bob also provides a preview of new Deco pieces, specifically the conversions of 1930's works.
This recorded video event includes the original PowerPoint––with wonderful images that you will be able to see directly on your computer screen, tablet, or mobile device.
About the Speaker:
Bob Rose is the current and third family generation president of Rose Iron Works, the acclaimed leader in high end decorative and Deco metalwork. The Northeast Ohio blacksmith studio, founded in 1904 has played a significant role in the design and production of many key metalwork items.
