A refined mid-century abstract bronze sculpture by Eduardo (Edward Arcenio) Chavez (1917–1995), titled Chama and created circa 1966. Cast in bronze and presented on its original wooden base, the sculpture demonstrates Chavez’s sophisticated approach to organic form, abstraction and modernist design. The fluid, sculptural composition combines gently curved and angular forms into a balanced arrangement that changes character from every viewpoint. Its warm bronze surface and compact scale give the work an intimate yet commanding presence, making it particularly effective as a tabletop sculpture, desk sculpture or small-scale modernist centerpiece. Born in Wagon Mound, New Mexico, Chavez was a versatile American artist whose career encompassed sculpture, mural painting, illustration, lithography and painting. He studied at the Colorado Springs Fine Arts Center, where he worked with influential artists including Boardman Robinson and Frank Mechau. His early career included mural commissions throughout the American West before his service during World War II. After the war, Chavez and his wife, painter Jenne Magafan, became part of the vibrant postwar art community in Woodstock, New York. He went on to receive a Tiffany Grant in 1948, a Fulbright Award in 1951 and the Childe Hassam Award in 1953. He was also a member of the Woodstock Art Association, the National Academy of Design and the National Society of Mural Painters, and taught at the Art Students League of New York, Colorado College and Syracuse University. Chama is an especially appealing example of Chavez’s American modernist sculpture, bringing together his Southwestern background with the formal experimentation of mid-century American abstraction.
