Early and private life [ edit ]
Michael Sandle was born in Weymouth, Dorset . His father was serving in the Royal Navy , and he was christened on HMS Ark Royal .[2] Plymouth was bombed in the Second World War, and he grew up on the Isle of Man , where his father had been stationed in 1942. From 1951 to 1954, he studied at Douglas School of Art and Technology on the Isle of Man, and was then conscripted for two years' National Service in the Royal Artillery .[3] [4] [5]
Art career [ edit ]
After attending evening classes at Chester College of Art , he studied printmaking in London at the Slade School of Fine Art from 1956 to 1959, where he was taught etching by Anthony Gross , Lynton Lamb , and Ceri Richards . He was also taught by Andrew Forge , Lucian Freud , and Claude Rogers . After travelling to Italy and Paris, Sandle taught at various British art schools in the 1960s. Originally a painter and draughtsman, in the 1960s, he gravitated towards sculpture.
From 1970 to 1973, Sandle lived in Canada, where he was a visiting associate professor at the University of Calgary until 1971 and at the University of British Columbia from 1971 to 1972. In 1973, he moved to Germany, and taught in Pforzheim and Berlin . He became professor of sculpture at the Akademie der Bildenden Künste in Karlsruhe in 1980. From 1976 to 1982, Sandle was a member of the faculty of engraving at the British School in Rome . In 1982, he was elected an Associate of the Royal Academy , and in 1989 a full academician. After moving to Devon, he returned to London in 2003.
Two of Sandle's smaller sculptural works—described as "anti-memorial"[6] Tate Gallery : "A Twentieth Century Memorial" (1971–78) (originally entitled "A Mickey-Mouse Machine-Gun Monument for Amerika") and one of the five casts of his work "Der Trommler" (The Drummer) (1985, cast 1987).[7] [8]
His public works include:
a memorial (1985) to the victims of the crash of a US Army CH-47 in Mannheim during the city's Aeronautical Days on 11 September 1982
a large bronze statue of St George and the Dragon (1987–88) for a public square in Dorset Rise , London
the International Seafarers' Memorial (2001), outside the headquarters of the International Maritime Organization on the Albert Embankment in London
decorative plaques for a new building, La Colomberie in Saint Helier , under the Percent for Art scheme
the Siege Bell Memorial (1989–93),[9] Valletta , Malta, for which he was awarded the Henry Hering Memorial Medal by the US National Sculpture Society . The Siege Bell Memorial includes a thirteen-tonne bronze bell, "Santa Maria", one of the largest ever forged, which rings for two minutes every midday.
Sandle also worked on an unrealised project for the Battle of Britain Monument with Theo Crosby and Pedro Guedes in 1987. The plans for the 500 ft monument near Surrey Docks include a hollow pyramid containing laser-generated holograms and sounds recalling the Blitz , topped by sculptures of a Heinkel bomber and a Spitfire .[10]
He has exhibited at the 5th Paris Biennale , the Sao Paulo Biennial , and the 4th and 6th Documenta in Kassel . Examples of his work are held by the Tate Gallery in London, the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, the Australian National Gallery in Canberra, the Hakone Museum in Hakone , Japan, and the British Museum .[citation needed A major retrospective of his work was held at the Whitechapel Art Gallery in 1988 and then at the Wurttembergischer Kunstverein in Stuttgart in 1989.[citation needed
Sandle designed the Belgrano Medal in 1986, which shows Margaret Thatcher , with the inscription "Imperatrix Impudens" ("Shameless Empress").[citation needed
He has been the recipient of a number of awards, including:
He wa a selector for The Threadneedle Prize for painting and sculpture in 2010.[11]
Sandle was elected a member of the Royal Academy in 1989, and became a Fellow of the Royal Society of British Sculptors in 1994. He resigned from the Royal Academy in 1997 in protest at the Sensation Marcus Harvey 's painting Myra
