Gerda Rubinstein, London,1993

Gerda Ursula Rubinstein (16 July 1931-May 2022)[1][2] was a Dutch sculptor of mainly figures, birds and animals based in England since 1959[3]/1960.[4]

Born in Berlin, Rubinstein moved at the age of three or four to Amsterdam, where after the war she studied at the Rijksakademie van beeldende kunsten. In 1960 she left for England, where she had also lived in the war years, and from 2013 she lived in Reigate, Surrey.[1] She had historic links with Harlow town through her early commissions from Sir Frederick Gibberd and the Harlow Art Trust.[5]

Ruebstein attended the Rijksacademie in Amsterdam and then studied in Paris after receiving a grant. Returning to the Netherlands, Gerda's first major commission was for a carving in stone, unveiled in IJmuiden in 1956, followed by "Children Playing," a bronze sculpture in the Amsterdam Oosterpark.[6]

Rubinstein continued to exhibit up until her 2017 exhibit "Observation and Insight" at Pardon Mill.[7]
