Industrial Metal Llama Sculpture by Robert Cumpston, 1930-2018
SOLDIndustrial Metal Llama Sculpture by Robert Cumpston, 1930-2018. Metal Llama sculpture by Robert Cumpston of IL. Signed by the artist. Cumpston grew up, lived on, and worked the family farm in Colfax, IL which he eventually took over. But in his free time, he used the skills he developed repairing farm equipment to weld together spare equipment parts and scrap metal to create amazing animal sculptures. As he enjoyed making these artistic sculptures and was successfully selling them, in 1981 Cumpston rented the farm and gave up farming so he could focus on making art. Though Cumpston, a graduate of Colfax High School, never attended college or took art classes, he was extremely successful—selling much of his work locally, but also selling it to clients across the U.S. If you aren’t familiar with his work, visit Bloomington’s Miller Park Zoo, where some of his “animals” are on display.

The expressive sculptural forms of the Eero Saarinen Womb Chair (1946) can also be found in his architecture, from the TWA Terminal (now the TWA Hotel) at New York’s JFK Airport to the Gateway Arch in St. Louis. In 1940, the Finnish American and his friend Charles Eames took first prize at the Organic Design in Home Furnishings competition at MoMA. Later that decade, Florence Knoll challenged Saarinen to create a chair that she could curl up in, which led to this iconic design. The Knoll Womb Chair has an enveloping form that continues to be one of the most celebrated and recognized representations of midcentury organic modernism. By applying foam molded over a fiberglass shell, Saarinen created a single-piece form that perfectly facilitates a relaxed sitting posture. Manufactured by Knoll according to the original specifications of the designer.
