Stanley Taub (NY, 1931 - 2024) was a multimedia artist who, in addition to his plastic surgery practice, began a career as a sculptural artist in 1963. From busts, models, and full figural sculptures, Dr. Taub's pieces have earned multiple prizes and accolades. His first sculpture, a marble carving of his hand, earned him his first notices. This would mark the beginning of an over 40 year career in sculpting in bronze and glassworks and award recognition.
Taub’s busts, models and full-figural works were commissioned and displayed worldwide. His sculptures have been exhibited by the National Sculpture Society. His sculpture “Compassion” was commissioned by The American Society of Plastic Surgery. The Yale Music Library acquired his life size bust of Vladimir Horowitz and his commissioned sculpture portraits of Arthur Rubinstein and Henry Z. Steinway of Steinway & Sons reside at Steinway Hall in NYC and the Museum of Making Music in Carlsbad California. His life size sculpture of John Curry, the Olympic World figure skater champion was commissioned for The British National Skating Arena. His life-sized sculpture of his wife of 34 years and renowned British figure skating champion, Patricia Dodd, resides in The World Figure Skating Museum in Colorado Springs. His sculptures also include a bust of Clint Eastwood.
Taub never stopped inventing and creating through his 90's. Sculptor, inventor, actor, playwright, comedian, pianist, painter, magician, filmmaker, and ventriloquist, Stanley was dedicated to so many different disciplines and never limited to just one. He was a practicing plastic surgeon in Manhattan for over 50 years and a medical inventor with multiple patents. In his late 80's, Dr. Taub invented the commercially successful iRoller, a compact reusable touch-screen cleaner.
