Jonathan Silver (November 19, 1937 – July 10, 1992) was an American figurative sculptor, and visual artist "known for infusing classical forms with an extreme, implicitly modern sense of emotion."[1] His work draws from the hellenistic tradition, as well as Rodin, Giacometti and Freudian psychoanalysis.[1]
