Summary |
A disciple of Classical sculpture in a time of pervasive abstract modernism, Lawrence M. Ludtke (1929-2007) of Houston imbued his creations with a sense of movement and realism through his attention to detail, anatomy, and proportion. As a skilled athlete who played professional baseball for the Brooklyn Dodgers organization, Ludtke brought to his art a fascination with musculature and motion that empowered him to capture the living essence of his subjects |
