Nebula Bronze Statue - 1934

Nebula by Avard T. Fairbanks

The statue entitled Nebula was created by Avard T in 1934 when he was Professor of Sculpture at the University of Michigan. This statue represents the combination of natural phenomenon with the human figure.  It was designed with a female figure enclosed in a circular orb in a graceful form in the Art Deco style.  The statue was made using a live model who had the perfect body with ideal female proportions. 

It was exhibited in the 1939 World’s Fair in New York City.  A noted anthropologist stated, “All the Venuses must hide their laurels since Fairbanks created Nebula.”  A bronze premortem casting of Nebula is on exhibit in the Brookgreen Gardens, National Sculpture Gardens in South Carolina. 

A postmortem bronze casting can be made available for purchase of this remarkable life-size statue.
