Born in Detroit in 1923, Jerome Kirk served in WWII and received a degree in mechanical engineering from MIT in 1951. Impressed by the work of Alexander Calder, Kirk’s early work bore the influence of early kinetic art however he soon developed a style of his own. Kirk’s dedication to his craft has set new standards for sculpture, specifically kinetic sculpture.
