Clement Meadmore

Clement Meadmore (9 February 1929 – 19 April 2005) was an Australian-American furniture designer and sculptor known for massive outdoor steel sculptures.

Meadmore used COR-TEN steel, aluminium, and occasionally bronze to create colossal outdoor sculptures which combine the elements of abstract expressionism and minimalism.

[1] He was an avid amateur drummer and jazz lover who held jam sessions in his home.

His fondness for jazz is reflected in the names of several of his works, including "Riff" (1996), "Round Midnight" (1996), "Stormy Weather" (1997), "Night and Day" (1979) and "Perdido" (1978).

[3][4][5] He authored How to Make Furniture Without Tools (1975) and The Modern Chair: Classic Designs by Thonet, Breuer, Le Corbusier, Eames and Others (1997).
