Iconic Curtis Jere Birds in Flight Wall Sculpture
This dynamic metal sculpture makes a beautiful play between form and space. The angular wings of the geometric birds make sleek, elongated shadows on the wall, contrasting with the sharp shapes of negative space in-between the birds.
Curtis Freiler and Jerry Fels created the nom de plume Curtis Jere to market their mid century sculptures. They designed and made large scale metal art which retailed through high end studios like Raymor in New York City.

Curtis Jere was founded in California in 1964 by Curtis Freiler and his brother-in-law Jerry Fels. Prior to founding Curtis Jere, Fels and Freiler ran a costume jewelry company, Renoir & Matisse. When a fire destroyed the company in 1963, the duo decided to start over in the decor industry.
They called their new brand Artisan House and adopted the nom-de-plume Curtis Jere for the brand’s sculptural metal decor line. Their self-prescribed goal was to produce “gallery-quality art for the masses.” Curtis Jere sculptures quickly gained a passionate following and the company was represented by high end studios throughout the States, like Raymor in New York City.
Recent appearances of Curtis Jere artworks have been sighted in the hit TV series 'Madmen', creating a new surge in popularity.
