William Friedle ran a metal sculpture shop in New York City during the early 60’s.  He and his brother Bruce opened a showroom called Sculptsmith at 138 west Tenth Street in 1961. He and Bruce were both under 25 years old at the time.  They created wonderful brass and copper abstract sculptures, including this one.  We have an article from the New York Times dated 1961 on the opening of his shop.

Fabulous early 60's welded abstract mixed metal sculpture.
