About The brand

Frank Meisler made extraordinary sculptures for over 60 years and became a world acclaimed artist. He was born in Danzig in 1925, educated in England and graduated in Architecture at Manchester University.

As a child Frank Meisler was rescued from the Nazis by getting onto a Kindertransport train. Five monuments were designed by him and erected in five cities telling this life story.

Meisler’s work is characterized by a sense of kinetic movement and revelation, intellect and humor. His sculptures, in limited edition or as commissioned art, were presented as gifts to royalty, dignitaries, and heads of states around the world. His public sculptures have been erected in Jerusalem, London, Berlin, Los Angeles, Miami, Santo Domingo, Germany, Russia, Ukraine, Holland, Poland and more.

He has won the Czech Academy of Art awarded him the ‘Franz Kafka’ Gold Medal for Artistic Achievement; The Russian and the Ukrainian Academies of Art elected him Honorary Academician; The Order of Merit 1st Class of the Federal Republic of Germany; The City of Gdansk Honorary Ambassador to Israel; The “Freedom of the City of London”.

Frank passed away in 2018. His daughter Marit Meisler is continuing his legacy and the family brand. You can read more about him in OUR HISTORY section.
