About The brand
Making Art since 1962
Frank Meisler was a world-renowned sculptor who created unique and timeless high-end metal sculptures. His sculptures are owned by distinguished dignitaries all over the world.
The sculptures are kinetic, configured to allow for movement and surprise. They all undergo a meticulous handcrafted process with the utmost respect to detail and quality.
Custom-designed portraits and large commissioned sculptures stand all around the world, serving as center art pieces in city squares, commercial buildings and private homes.
Our team of dedicated artisans has lovingly crafted sculptures for over six decades. Today Marit Meisler continues her father’s legacy and is the Artist and the owner of the Gallery and the Atelier. Graduate of the Bezalel Academy of Art and Design, she is weaving together Frank’s history along with a fresh contemporary vision.
Frank Meisler
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.
