▲ Philip Turner (1918-1997), 'Perching', bronze, numbered '1/4', on a Perspex cube, 63cm high overall Provenance: The Reid Gallery, London, 1964. Born in Sussex in 1918, British sculptor Philip Turner was educated at Marlborough College, before commencing his studies at St Martin’s School of Art in 1936. Later, he would study the basics of painting and sculpting under the tutelage of British sculptor Leon Underwood, and in 1948, would receive a Diploma of Fine Art from the Slade. Turner is credited as one of the first post-war sculptors to employ casting as a means in and of itself to create the final form, and was known to be an expert authority on bronze pouring to his colleagues. Turner had an uneasy relationship with mass-production and would take care to finish each piece by hand, welding, grinding, flaming and polishing, to produce similar, but never identical, forms. Unlike many of his contemporaries, who chose to depict man as tortured and anxious, Turner, who described his role as artist as something between oracle and entertainer, used wit, irony and optimism in his representations.
