story lobby of the redesigned chicago history museum in recent years much of his work was in the form of public and private commissions his work was featured in galleries in san francisco santa fe albuquerque and washington dc tim made so many contributions to the art community and in the last few weeks of his life young and established artists came daily to thank him for that and for giving them persistent encouragement beginning right after he moved to sausalito in the mid 1960s he helped the sausalito art festival become more artist focused and co chaired it in 1969 he joined jean varda s wild and crazy circle of young artists and in future years tim frequently quoted varda s admonition that art needs to show the hand of man from 1970 to 1973 tim and annette rose lived in paris where he was inspired first by calder then by wassily kandinsky tim has written that what followed was a body of work breaking away from the calderesque rhythms beginning with small wire liquid cubes that he sold in paris in the early 1970s tim built a large body of work that became in his words paintings in three dimensions tim annette june morrison and a few friends began what became the community of artists ateliers at the industrial center building in sausalito when he returned from paris he inaugurated an annual exhibition and sale at the icb that continues today for decades tim spearheaded the annual icb show which attracts thousands of visitors and collectors to meet and buy directly from professional artists from 1973 to 1979 tim and annette owned and operated the rose bernardi gallery in sausalito which earned bay area fame for themed exhibitions such as a food sculpture show that included a live model jumping out of an edible cake leah schwartz isabella kirkland

a new community of artists to share the space tim attended george washington university mexico city college and received his degree from san francisco state university susan shea and tim were loving companions for the last 17 years of his life his spirit energy and creativity live on in his work and in the many lives he touched about the artist timothy rose created mobile sculpture for more than 40 years first inspired by the work of alexander calder he began exhibiting professionally in 1965 he lived in japan mexico and paris it was in paris that the work of wassily kandinsky began to influence his ideas and sculpture particularly kandinsky s later work consisting of small drawings of overlapping layers of floating hard edged shapes later back in sausalito california rose developed a passion for figure drawing the result combined with a maturing vision produced a body of work where the viewer sees a more sensuous highly varied group of mobiles often colorful that combine the engineering of a calder work with the humor and liveliness of artwork characteristic of california he worked from his studio on mare island near san francisco until his passing in 2008 selected
