the collection of perry & june ottenberg lots 1-35

ver the course of their sixty-five year marriage, Dr. Bernard Perry Ottenberg and his wife June Fuller (Chamberlain) Ottenberg built an exceptional collection of Pennsylvania art and design, focused on the artists and craftsmen of their native Philadelphia and its environs. Both university professors in Philadelphia, the Ottenbergs were ardent supporters of the city’s most important art institutions, including the Philadelphia Museum of Art, Woodmere Art Museum, Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts, Moore College of Art, and Tyler School of Art. To furnish their family home on the Philadelphia Main Line and later in Center City, they turned to the renowned woodworker, George Nakashima, working up in New Hope. As early as 1958 they purchased the family’s dining table, of quintessential Nakashima design, with turned legs and a top of pronounced sapwood streaks with undulating natural edges to the sides. The living room suite, purchased that same year, comprising a settee and cushion chair, was later augmented through the 1960s with side chairs and an exquisite special-order bar cabinet. Related in design to the Kornblut case and Bahut cabinet with two highly-figured doors and a chunky burled handle, this bar cabinet is among the more unique case pieces produced by the Nakashima Studio in this period. The Ottenberg’s last recorded purchase from Nakashima came in 1986, with a set of four Conoid dining chairs. The warmth of Nakashima’s furniture was the backdrop against which they amassed artworks by notable Philadelphia artists including Jane Piper, Elizabeth Osborne, Warren Rohrer and the American modernist Arthur B. Carles. The Ottenbergs were also among the most important collectors of Rudolf Staffel’s porcelain. Staffel, a celebrated instructor at the Tyler School of Art, gained prominence in the 1950s and 60s for his experimentations with the porcelain medium, creating nonfunctional vessels which referenced utilitarian vases, but explored the transmission of light through the clay as sculpture. The Ottenbergs lent or donated works by Staffel to dozens of museums and exhibitions, including landmark shows at the Philadelphia Museum of Art.

rudolf staffel (1911-2002)

hen I think about Rudolf Staffel, the words of poet Stephen Berg come to mind. “Rudi’s pots move from a calm fluid area to a stream of porcelain ... knotted, patched, scored ... from a quick stark delicacy to brutally raw....” Staffel was born in San Antonio, Texas, in 1911 of German descent. Though he studied painting, he was drawn to glass and clay early in his artistic education. He traveled from Texas to Chicago to Mexico, where the romance of clay changed his course, Courtesy of American Craft Council Library & Archives and finally to New Orleans. There he taught pottery at the Arts and Crafts Club from 1936 to 1939. I am certain that he was exposed to the work of George Ohr, who had a position as an apprentice potter in New Orleans when he was twenty-two and whose idiosyncratic command of clay must have had a subliminal influence on Staffel. A major turning point was his invitation to teach at the Tyler School of Art at Elkins Park (suburban Philadelphia) in 1940. During that period he studied with Hans Hofmann in New York, and his interest in abstraction is evidenced in the “push and pull” manipulation of the clay. In 1959 he was commissioned by Mel Richman, a fervent collector of ceramics, to create a dinner set which was never realized, but it led Rudi to discover the full potential of porcelain and its light-gathering qualities. Rudi’s interest in the translucency of porcelain and its ability to transmit light was central to his work for forty years until his death in 2002. Staffel’s works are in major private and public collections throughout the world, including the Philadelphia Museum of Art; The State Hermitage Museum, St. Petersburg; Metropolitan Museum of Art; Los Angeles Museum of Art; Designmuseo, Helsinki; Stedlijk Museum, ’s-Hertogenbosch, the Netherlands; Tokyo Museum of Art; Museum of Art and Design, New York; Renwick Gallery, Smithsonian American Art Museum, Washington, DC; and Museum of Fine Arts, Houston. During the 1990s it was unusual for a living American ceramic artist to have two European retrospectives: one at Museum voor Het Kruithuis, ’s-Hertogenbosch, the Netherlands (1990), held simultaneously with a George Ohr exhibition; and another, “Searching for Light,” which was held first at the Philadelphia Museum of Art before traveling to the Museum of Applied Arts, Helsinki (1996–97). June and Perry Ottenberg’s passionate support of Rudolf Staffel continued for almost four decades. Their collection of Staffel’s works consists of major examples of his pots, including classical forms as well as miniatures and major vessels whose idiosyncratic gestures created a unique body of his work.

james camp (1930-2008)

ames Monroe Camp was a self-taught, African-American artist who began working in wood to fill what he called “a need for self-expression.” After serving as a drill sergeant in the Korean War, Mr. Camp moved to Camden, New Jersey where he opened his first woodworking studio in 1963, after a brief career as an electrician at RCA. He moved operations to Philadelphia in 1967, opening his eponymous studio, J. Camp Designs, at 20th and Sansom Street. Camp was wellknown in Philadelphia craft circles and beyond, purportedly earning commissions from the likes of Hollywood superstars Frank Sinatra, Sammy Davis Jr., and John Wayne. It’s unknown how many furniture and woodworking commissions Camp received, but the great pride he took with his creations (they are almost always effusively signed), the small size of his studio, and the rarity with which his work appears on the secondary market, suggests that he was likely working alone and produced a modest output over his career. Camp’s brand of organic modernism is expressed through heavily carved, massive forms in laminated or solid walnut with simple joinery and echoes the influence of fellow East coast woodworkers like Wendell Castle. This generation of woodworkers pushed furniture to the forefront of the American craft movement, which by 1972 was solidly canonized with the opening of the Smithsonian’s Renwick Gallery, and its inagural exhibition “Wooden Works: Furniture Objects by Five Contemporary Craftsmen.”

walker weed (1918-2014)

alker Ten Eyck Weed II was one of New England’s most esteemed craftsmen of the 20th century. Introduced informally to woodworking at a young age, Weed went on to study at Dartmouth College where he was heavily involved with the Outing and Canoe Clubs. He settled in Gilford, New Hampshire following graduation and service in World War II, and began professional woodworking in 1948. Weed was a lauded member of the League of New Hampshire Craftsmen, serving on the board through the 1950s and as a Trustee of the American Craft Council in 1956-57. In 1962, following a trip to Scandinavia to study furniture design, Weed returned to his alma matter to direct the woodworking program, eventually becoming Director of Craft, overseeing all student workshops until his retirement in 1981. He was named a Fellow of the American Craft Council in 1992, received the Award of Distinction from the Furniture Society in 2008, and the Award for Lifetime Achievement from the League of New Hampshire Craftsmen in 2010. Retrospectives of Weed’s work were held at Dartmouth College in 1981 and the League of New Hampshire Craftsmen in 2011. His chair designs can be found in the permanent collections of the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston and Currier Museum of Art in Manchester, New Hampshire.

the collection of dr. steven j. weber & pati doyle-weber lots 36-49

ati Doyle-Weber and Dr. Steven J. Weber were early patrons of Mira Nakashima’s following the death of Mira’s father, George Nakashima, in 1990. The Doyle-Webers had dreamed of commissioning work from the famed Nakashima studio and in the late 1980s met George and Mira at their New Hope, Pennsylvania studio, where they toured the showroom and drying barn. Following George’s death in 1990, Mira, who had then for several years been working as George’s apprentice in the most literal sense, was faced with her father’s larger-than-life legacy and the question of what would happen next. For decades prior, George Nakashima and his studio had earned huge notoriety for their immeasurable influence on the history of 20th century furniture design, generations of woodworkers, and an iconic aesthetic. Pati and Steven recognized early on that Mira was working with a distinct magic, unique from her father’s, but in comparable abundance. With Mira’s guiding hand and friendship they went about amassing a trove of furniture for a custom contemporary home they were building in the Philadelphia suburbs. The home would have to wait, however, for a Nakashima masterwork. Pati envisioned a large Nakashima dining table taking center stage in her new home. It was with this that Pati and Steven requested from George and Mira a table of highly-figured wood and unusually massive proportions, the dimensions of the table around which her home would then be built. For the commission, George Nakashima and Dr. Weber selected a prized slab of Claro walnut from the Western United States with a dramatic crotch grain. In order to support the slab’s size (cut to over nine feet by six feet), the studio utilized the “Altar”-type base George Nakashima had used years earlier in 1986 for the first of his “Peace Altars,” the spiritual culmination and design apotheosis of his lifelong work. These Altars, George envisioned, would each be gifted to a continent of the globe and serve as “shrines” to peace and communal understanding. Designed specifically to accommodate a large gathering and celebrate a truly remarkable tree, the table selected by George and designed by Mira Nakashima for the Doyle-Webers shares both a design and spiritual kinship with these Altars for Peace. Perhaps unsurprisingly, the Conoid chairs selected for the table would themselves be superlative, with seats carved from a single board of exceptionally-figured walnut. To furnish the rest of their new home, Pati and Steven ordered benches, coffee tables, lounge chairs, side tables, and other choice commissions from Mira through the 1990s. The Collection of Dr. Steven J. Weber & Pati Doyle-Weber is among the nicest assemblages of Mira Nakashima’s early work. 25

Shipping and Packing Responsibility for packing, shipping and insurance shall be exclusively that of the purchaser. Upon request, Freeman’s will provide the purchaser with names of professional packers and shippers known to us. Endangered Species Lots marked * are manufactured in whole or in part of restricted materials that may include tortoiseshell, ivory, mother-of-pearl, coral, rhinoceros horn, whalebone or marine ivory. Such materials may require specific licenses, certificates, or CITES documentation for import, export, moving between states in the U.S., or resale. Obtaining these documents may require scientific, laboratory or other expert analysis, in order to establish which species or genus the material came from. Freeman’s is unable to provide this information, and the obligation is on the purchaser of a lot containing any of these materials to ensure that they are able to obtain all the necessary or required documents should they need to, prior to bidding on the lot. If proper documentation or licenses etc. cannot be obtained for a purchased lot, the purchaser will still be required to make an on time payment for the lot as per our standard terms and conditions. Freeman’s cataloguing of the lots marked with this symbol * represents the best of our opinion, and the absence of this symbol from any lot description does not form a warranty that the lot will be free from any licensing or certification restrictions.

Freeman & Co, (“Freeman’s”) shall be offered and sold on the terms and conditions set forth below which constitutes the complete statement of the terms and conditions on which all property is offered for sale. By bidding at the auction, whether present in person or by agent, by written bid, telephone, internet or other means, the buyer agrees to be bound by these terms and conditions.

1 Unless otherwise indicated, all Property will be offered by Freeman’s as agent for the Consignor. 2 Freeman’s reserves the right to vary the terms of sale and any such variance shall become part of these Conditions of Sale. 3 Buyer acknowledges that it had the right to make a full inspection of all Property prior to sale to determine the condition, size, repair or restoration of any Property. Therefore, all property is sold “ASIS”. Freeman’s is acting solely as an auction broker, and unless otherwise stated, does not own the Property offered for sale and has made no independent investigation of the Property. Freeman’s makes no warranty of title, merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose, or any other warranty or representation regarding the description, genuineness, attribution, provenance or condition to the Property of any kind or nature with respect to the Property. 4 Freeman’s in its sole and exclusive discretion, reserves the right to withdraw any property, at any time, before the fall of the hammer. 5 Unless otherwise announced by the auctioneer at the time of sale, all bids are per lot as numbered in the printed catalogue. Freeman’s reserves the right to determine any and all matters regarding the order, precedence or appropriate increment of bids or the constitution of lots. 6 The highest bidder acknowledged by the auctioneer shall be the buyer. The auctioneer has the right to reject any bid, to advance the bidding at his absolute discretion and in the event of any dispute between bidders, the auctioneer shall have the sole and final discretion either to determine the successful bidder or to re- offer and resell the article in dispute. If any dispute arises after sale, the Freeman’s sale record shall be conclusive in all respects. 7 If the auctioneer determines that any opening or later bid or any advance bid is not commensurate with the value of the Property offered, he may reject the same and withdraw the Property from sale.

8 Upon the fall of the hammer, title to any offered lot or article will immediately pass to the highest bidder as determined in the exclusive discretion of the auctioneer, subject to compliance by the buyer with these Conditions of Sale. Buyer thereupon assumes full risk and responsibility of the property sold, agrees to sign any requested confirmation of purchase, and agrees to pay the full price, plus Buyer’s Premium, therefore or such part, upon such terms as Freeman’s may require. 9 No lot may be removed from Freeman’s premises until the buyer has paid in full the purchase price therefor including Buyer’s Premium or has satisfied such terms that Freeman’s, in its sole discretion, shall require. Subject to the foregoing, all Property shall be paid for and removed by the buyer at his/her expense within ten (10) days of sale and, if not so removed, may be sold by Freeman’s, or sent by Freeman’s to a public warehouse, at the sole risk and charge of the buyer(s), and Freeman’s may prohibit the buyer from participating, directly or indirectly, as a bidder or buyer in any future sale or sales. In addition to other remedies available to Freeman’s by law, Freeman’s reserves the right to impose a late charge of 1.5% per month of the total purchase price on any balance remaining ten (10) days after the day of sale. If Property is not removed by the buyer within ten (10) days, a handling charge of 1% of the total purchase price per month from the tenth day after the sale until removal by the buyer shall be payable to Freeman’s by the buyer; Freeman’s shall charge 1.5% of the total purchase price per month for any property not so removed within 60 days after the sale. Freeman’s will not be responsible for any loss, damage, theft, or otherwise responsible for any goods left in Freeman’s possession after ten (10) days. If the foregoing conditions or any applicable provisions of law are not complied with, in addition to other remedies available to Freeman’s and the Consignor (including without limitation the right to hold the buyer(s) liable for the bid price) Freeman’s, at its option, may either cancel the sale, retaining as liquidated damages all payments made by the buyer(s), or resell the property. In such event, the buyer(s) shall remain liable for any deficiency

in the original purchase price and will also be responsible for all costs, including warehousing, the expense of the ultimate sale, and Freeman’s commission at its regular rates together with all related and incidental charges, including legal fees. Payment is a precondition to removal. Payment shall be by cash, certified check or similar bank draft, or any other method approved by Freeman’s. Checks will not be deemed to constitute payment until cleared. Any exceptions must be made upon Freeman’s written approval of credit prior to sale. In addition, a defaulting buyer will be deemed to have granted and assigned to Freeman’s, a continuing security interest of first priority in any property or money of, or owing to such buyer in Freeman’s possession, and Freeman’s may retain and apply such property or money as collateral security for the obligations due to Freeman’s. Freeman’s shall have all of the rights accorded a secured party under the Pennsylvania Uniform Commercial Code. 10 Unless the sale is advertised and announced as “without reserve”, each lot is offered subject to a reserve and Freeman’s may implement such reserves by bidding through its representatives on behalf of the Consignors. In certain instances, the Consignor may pay less than the standard commission rate where Freeman’s or its representative is a successful bidder on behalf of the Consignor. Where the Consignor is indebted to Freeman’s, Freeman’s may have an interest in the offered lots and the proceeds therefrom, other than the broker’s Commissions, and all sales are subject to any such interest. 11 No “buy” bids shall be accepted at any time for any purpose. 12 Any pre-sale bids must be submitted in writing to Freeman’s prior to commencement of the offer of the first lot of any sale. Freeman’s copy of any such bid shall conclusively be deemed to be the sole evidence of same, and while Freeman’s accepts these bids for the convenience of bidders not present at the auction, Freeman’s shall not be responsible for the failure to execute, or, to execute properly, any pre-sale bid.

13 A Buyer’s Premium will be added to the successful bid price and is payable by the buyer as part of the total purchase price. The Buyer’s Premium shall be: 25% on the first $200,000 of the hammer price of each lot, 20% on the portion from $200,001 through $3,000,000, and 12% thereafter. 14 Unless exempted by law from the payment thereof, the buyer will be required to pay any and all federal excise tax and any state and/or local sales taxes, including where deliveries are to be made outside the state where a sale is conducted, which may be subject to a corresponding or compensating tax in another state. 15 Freeman’s may, as a service to buyer, arrange to have purchased property posted and shipped at the buyer’s expense. Freeman’s is not responsible for any acts or omissions in packing or shipping of purchased lots whether or not such carrier is recommended by Freeman’s. Packing and handling of purchased lots is at the responsibility of the buyer and is at the entire risk of the buyer. 16 In no event shall any liability of Freeman’s to the buyer exceed the purchase price actually paid. 17 No claimed modification or amendment of this Agreement on the part of any party shall be deemed extant, enforceable or provable unless it is in writing that has been signed by the parties to this Agreement. No course of dealing and no delay or omission on the part of Freeman’s in exercising any right under this Agreement shall operate as a waiver of such right or any other right and waiver on any one or more occasions shall not be construed as a bar to or waiver of any right or remedy of Freeman’s on any future occasion. 18 These Conditions of Sale and the buyer’s, the Consignor’s and Freeman’s rights under these Conditions of Sale shall be governed by, construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and Consignor and Buyer agree to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Philadelphia, Pennsylvania Court of Common Pleas and the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania.
